The room was small but suited my purposes. Great location. I stayed 3 nights & while the shared bathroom was between approximately 6 people I believe I never once had to wait to use it & it was always stocked & clean. Great set up!

Excellent quiality matress and bedding. Very comfortable and warm. The photo of the unit had 2 lamps on both sides but actually it was 1. Being exact to the photo helps to visualize your choice. But it was great.
