Good: Wifi, Shower, Bathroom, Kitchen, Bed, Good working space, tv. Clean and tidy. Free parking. Bad: Needed an extension cord to plug my laptop in from the table, though I could have used the desk under the TV. But this was just a bit too small for my requirements. Room was close to the road, so a little noisy. Most food options were a drive away.
