Nice comfy bed and quiet rooms. Good pressure in the shoewr The accesable rooms need some consideration. A bit more space to get a wheel chair around the bed. Not enough room to turn a wheelchair around. The bathroom wasnt accesable. No hand rails to hold on to. And toilet is low and no hand rails to assist in getting your self up. This is a safty concern.
