More than I expected!
Nice big room with a private little courtyard out back. Well appointed room kitchenette and bathroom. Really good to have a proper walk-in shower that worked well too! Many hotels have the shower over bath which I find a bit annoying. Overall was great and recommend!

It would benefit by having room nominated parking spots. Shower is too low for average height people. Otherwise a pleasant place to stay. Cheers
