Twin rooms feature two single beds; quadruple rooms offer three beds. All rooms have carpeted floors, heating, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with hairdryer. Storage is limited to a few shelves rather than a full wardrobe, making the rooms best suited for sleeping and short stays. Interconnecting rooms are available for families.
