Bed cover was soiled and it was a sunday, so no cleaning staff and we had to remake our bed ourselves. There were also dirty smear marks on the wall at the bed head that we cleaned off. Otherwise a comfortable large and well- equipped space was provided. (Towel hangers in the bathroom would be a nice addition.)
