Great position, close to everything, parking next to room, beds were good, aircon worked well. The only downside is dangerous bathrooms. Extremely slippery with water (and especially with soap) on shower and bathroom floor. Not suitable for anyone with any sort of balance issues. There was a warning sign regarding slippery floors, but I was still surprised how slippery they were.
