the sycamore junior suite had a lot of space and good natural light. the bathroom was spacious. it featured a large shower and a comfy bath. lots of parking space was available.
i found the pricing for spirits unreasonable. some were more expensive than the cocktails , i thought this was unjustified given the standard of the drinks. the service wasn't very friendly.
