1. The room was big and comfortable and stylish (the balcony and the sofa were a great extra touch of comfort), although the bathroom was cramped and didn't live up to the bedroom.

2. The hotel is a bit cramped, especially upon arrival - more than one guest checking in at a time = chaos.

"Lovely but a bit cramped. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/8/2012 Vote

3. A couple of quibbles: the TV offerings were primitive -- no Comedy Central, for example, and only an analogue signal for the local PBS station that made it too fuzzy to watch; the toilet/shower room was way too cramped; breakfast at the adjoining Firefly restaurant was overpriced (walk two blocks to the Luna Grill and Diner on Connecticut).

7. there is a lot of counter space near the sink (big plus for two girls) the rest of the room was a decent size however there was much too much furniture in there and made it feel cramped.

8. the lobby is very small and feels a bit cramped if there's a few people waiting to check in, though the process is pretty quick and painless (for both checking in and out) also the front desk attendent and especially the bellhop with very friendly and helpful when it came to restaurant suggestions and allowing us to store out luggage on the last daythe room set-up is just akward and theres so much wasted space.

9. The closest thing that qualified was either the cramped lobby, or the hotel`s restaurant, which kicked us out when we tried to sit down for a minute to cool our heels.

10. The room was comfortably appointed with the exception to the bathroom which is on the tad small, cramped side.
