Room was fine - carpets are sort of gross. Rooms should have a full length mirror. I mistakenly forgot to cancel our first night and sent an email in the morning to informa location that we were still coming for second night- Paid in advance no refund I knew. But I was surprised to hear back that our room had been cancelled as a no show? fortunately there was a room but I was quite unsettled to hear that maybe it would not have been?
