My bed was really comfortable. Lots of storage space and table and chairs to relax so you didn’t have to sit on the bed. Pretty much exactly was it says on the label
The elevator doors were heavy for me to manage

Location.
We suffered the same experience as many we read about in reviews. We specially booked a Penn 5000 room after reading many reviews which stated that the hotel allocated a second class room initially. We had the same experience. When we booked (at 1.30am as our flight was delayed), we were allocate a smelly dirty room. When I went back were re allocated another room, only marginally better than the first. I again complained, now nearly 2.00am, but was told to sleep in the room and see the manager in the morning. Next day, I told the manager that I had not been allocated a Penn 5000 (renovated) room as booked. I was at last allocated the correct room type. I demanded a refund of the first night tariff but was offered only $50 compensation. Although the room was cleaner, it lacked some items which were included in the other two rooms (such as a fridge). I have complained to the property several times about our experience. I checked my credit card after we checked out and noticed that we paid pull price. So far we have had no response regarding our claim for refund of at least one night tariff or room quality. Overall, we are extremely disappointed.
