Our room was just right for an overnite. Plenty of room to move around in.I was disappointed that Wifi had a charge, I guess I did not read advertisement correctly. I imagined that Wifi in hotel accommodation would automatically be complimentary. My only other comment is I had a $4 charge as I paid by credit card................once again, disappointed. My stay at the Sebel was lovely though and I would stay again for sure.
