So they only have 2 rooms with the heart shaped jetted tubs that they show in the pictures. That was what i thought i was getting and did not. The other jetted tub was fine just disappointed that what was advertised was not what i got. Bed was very comfortable, slept great. Shower was good. Good for the price. Would stay there again.
