The in house phone didn't work, so we couldn't call for additional blankets (only a single doona on each bed). The open balcony was narrow but nice to have. Good that the doors closed on both bedrooms, but when the bedroom connected to the lounge was closed, there was very little space to get past the couch and luggage rack , even when we moved the couch. Saturday night was very noisy, but I guess that's to be expected anywhere. In room split system didn't have a manual (and no info in hotel instruction book) so it took a lot of trial and error to get it to heat (necessary because no blankets ). Valet parking a bit weird, we were required to park on the footpath because 3 other cars (capacity) were also waiting for valet parking (also, $35 fee to park). In room washer would have been handy at other times on our trip, so it's certainly good to have there, and the full kitchen (oven, microwave, stovetop).
