i am grateful for the room setup, its whole design worked well. the bed provided nice firmness, just the way i like it. the shower design seemed very cute to me. i will certainly be back sometime soon.
the door did not properly isolate sound and light from the hallway. i could hear noise from the hallway. the window faced the street. light from streetlights brightened the room during the night.
