The room we booked through Expedia was not as described, but the Property Manager was upfront about the issue and generously upgraded us on the spot. The room was clean, comfortable, and well‑appointed with tea and coffee facilities, a fridge, microwave, and a Smart TV. The shower had excellent water pressure, and after a long day’s drive we had a very comfortable and restful night’s sleep.
