spacious roomcomfortable bedfriendly staffmissing door
the room was quite spacious! i found it clean and cosy and the beds were comfortable. keiko was super friendly and helpful. i noticed details like coffee, tea, and fresh water daily. i thought this was a nice touch.
i found the shower was missing a door, with only a shower curtain. this resulted in some water escaping onto the floor. this could be easily avoided with a little attention.
