Ground-floor smoking rooms are available. The double-room bed size is two full-size beds, and the king room offers a king bed; maximum occupancy is 4 guests. Some units have hard flooring, which can be slippery and less comfortable for some. For those sensitive to smoke, note that ventilation can allow smoke from other rooms to enter. Noise levels are generally low with no highway sound, and some rooms have been described as quiet and dark.
