The hotel is in a good location and the staff were friendly. The room was ridiculously small. You have to crawl over the bed to get to the other side of the room. There was a vomit stain on the floor. I ordered a queen room. The bed was a double and very uncomfortable. The shower space is not a bathroom. Just a shower cubicle behind a curtain.
