poor lighting inconvenient stairs
The location IS great. my "Club Beautiful Room" felt somewhat underwhelming. There were some stairs inside the room, unexpected and a bit inconvenient. The bathroom lighting was particularly poor. I struggled to see well. it was just a tad disappointing given the price.
