"room was small, but usable, well appointed and clean. one negative stands out; because there was just one stool for sitting, the bed had a lot of wear along one edge making it feel like it was sloped. the property needs to either flip the mattress over regularly so that it will wear evenly, or replace the worn mattresses more often. also, the rooms should have some form of mini refrigerator."
