spacious room separate shower
The classic king room was quite spacious. It had a large desk area i used for my laptop. there was also a comfortable seating area near the window. It offered a nice spot to relax. the bathroom included both a tub and a separate shower. I found that very convenient. also, the blackout curtains worked effectively. They ensured a dark room for sleeping.
the gym's equipment looked slightly dated.
