"Everything was new or recently renovated. For me it had excellent room furniture display to make the space quite confortable and with a lot of space to have everything organized and tidy. The only things I think they can improve are that they didn't have bathroom mat, the tea pot was not previously cleaned and the heat in the room was TOO high and there was no way to cool it even with the heater turn off."
