Twin semi-double bed. There is a roll curtain near the washbasin, giving it the feel of a dressing room. Check-in at 12:00 and check-out at 11:00, so you can stay early and slowly. The system is almost self-contained. Until the room is cleaned after check-out, all you have to do is take the trash outside, put the towels in the used box, and bring your own toothbrush and other items from the first floor.It was very good. I would like to use it again.
