Not Quite as Chic as Advertised
small room shower placement
The location was fine I guess near some shops.
The room was indeed small no space for luggage I saw. The advertised shower was basically in the middle of the room great for exhibitionists not so much for a normal guest. I overheard other guests complaining about similar issues seems to be a trend.
