That's great news about the room, BK! It's always nice to have a happy hotel experience. When my sister, niece and I went to London (the one and only time I've been), we were at a hotel that was not very nice. Downstairs in the lobby, there were always several people who worked at the place smoking and we had to walk up through the layer of cigarette smoke to get to our room.
And the room itself was freaky. There were two beds on the main level and then a built-in ladder up to a loft with one bed, but the loft area was probably only four feet tall! I climbed up there with out much problem, but I couldn't even sit up without hitting my head on the ceiling!
And then they had what was called a "toilet en suite," which was a prefab closet-like bathroom structure that had a toilet, sink and shower area. But the sink was right at the door, and you really couldn't shut the door if you wanted to stand in front of the sink...AND the darn shower drained so slowly, that it practically filled up the whole floor area with shower water!
Fortunately, the floor area of the "toilet en suite" had a lip high enough that it never overflowed into the room. We wanted to leave that first night, but had to stay two nights because of the contract had a minimum-night-stay clause.
Here in Olympia, my sister's boyfriend found another place on-line, phoned her with the info and we headed out and went to a very nice hotel that had what I think of as Ikea-inspired furniture (my sister LOVES Ikea
). The rest of the trip was otherwise a great experience because we were able to get out of that first hotel.
