comfortable large bedcleaner intrusion
The room was clean and quiet. The large bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was good.
There was no one available to check me in. This caused a bit of a wait, but it wasn't much of an issue. The cleaner walked straight into my room without warning or apology, this was disturbing
