It is an attractive property. The room was spacious and clean, the TV numerous channels and the bed was comfortable. There was no second bedside table lamp. We did request one and it was never delivered. The toilet needs to be replaced with one that is ADA height and the bathroom should have been completely repainted instead of spot touch-ups. It didn't look good. The room did not have a safe. The property was quiet at night with plenty of parking. The cooling system in the room worked very well.
