It is fine. Just the lights a bit brilliant and the walls rather stark white. Shower in the bedroom is odd. Stickers make it mostly private - but not quite. Blinds in room are all up or down. Nothing in between. Odd choice of neon contrasts. Doesn’t age well. But it was fine for one night before flight and the location handy.
