Really don't like those split beds especially when they don't have any type of joiner. Really defeats the purpose of getting a king bed and it feels like your just sleeping in a single bed.

Overall we enjoy staying with you Our stay was amazing We had a great room cozy and quiet Unfortunately this time we got a king bedroom suite and our bed was not joined correctly causing a separation between the beds and had no topper over them which caused an unpleasant sleep for me falling between the beds and has put my back slightly
