The room we stayed in was a disabled room which was wonderful my only downside of this was the door into the room going in was workable but leaving was a task if these were to be automated they would be perfect if travelling as a load traveler. The bar on night time was great as a singer was on which he was amazing & breakfast in the morning was outstanding lots of choices to be made
