"Three nights in a wonderful suite."

I stayed in a king bed suite with a living room and it was absolutely yummy. It reminded me of a home that you might have in the Hamptons just cozy, beautiful wallpaper, gorgeous comfortable upholstered chair, two televisions, beautiful bedding. I just happen to get a room without a bathtub, which I did request, but I had already unpacked all of my things that did not want to move, but the suite was absolutely beautiful and I was very, very pleased with it.
