Room was micro room, and had a cheap bunk bed instead of separate beds. The bed shook a lot every time either person moved, so sleeping was difficult. Neither detail was indicated in the booking process, unless buried somewhere in the mouse type. Also, in the bathroom, they hung the towels on the handicap rails right next to the toilet.... not really a sanitary practice. The room and hotel were otherwise clean. The staff was very nice, as well.
