“I found that standard rooms seem to be the better choice here; the 'suite' is essentially just a larger room, not a separate space. On the upside, cleanliness is clearly a priority, and the breakfast service impressed with its attentiveness to restocking. If you need a bathtub, be sure to request a first-floor room well in advance.”
