Stylish Room Setup

I absolutely loved the room layout at The Tides Hotel. The toilet, bath, and lavatory are in separate spaces, which maximizes usability and saves time, especially when traveling with friends or family. The room was also very clean and stylishly designed, making it a perfect retreat after a busy day.
