Liked the space of the room and the spacious mini fridge. Our room had a giant storage area in the room, which could have been better utilized by increasing the space in the bathroom or making it into a breakfast nook. The bathroom had no fan, couldn't open the window for ventilation and the showerhead had terrible pressure.
