The hotel room is huge! With the cheapest option you could honestly live here. You have an entire kitchen, a large bathroom, living room, and large bed. Super clean, modern, and just so nice. There are even more amenities available. This was also a hotel available to those under 21, which was crucial for us. So glad we were able to stay here!
