There is a shared lounge and kitchen which we utilized to cook additional veggies as we found it lacking when eating out. There are two induction ranges and pots of water come to boil very quickly....

Dining options are vitually unlimited from the front door, and more anime/cosplay shopping stores than you can shake a stick at. Very friendly/helpful staff and great overall acommodations with the dual bunk bed a plus for small...
