"Great location, clean, very helpful staff. Breakfast buffet was good value. Great to have laundry onsite. The bathroom was so weird with the glass wall between bathroom and bedroom being basically see through. Had to arrange inconvenient out of room times so my daughters could shower with some measure of privacy. What’s the deal with the see-through glass?"
