Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The walkway to The Blue Room (Room 5) and Room 6 is very narrow and has air conditioning units extending about 8 inches just below one's shoulder height. I was unable to get my suitcase up the 3 steps to my room only by semi-crawling and pushing it up the stairs. My handicap stand up walker was even more difficult to get up to my room. There are no notices of the narrow corridors when booking it. If you are handicapped, only Rooms 1 to 4 have normal access.
