lucy was friendly and helpful. the room was clean and cute. she seems to care about your stay.
i couldn't get the temperature right in the room. it was either too hot or too cold. the pillows were too soft for me, so i didn't sleep as well as i'd hoped. the shower pressure was also quite weak, i needed a stronger flow.
