I stayed in Studio 60, which was very spacious and comfortable. It featured a separate walk-in closet, a luxurious marble bathroom with both a freestanding bath and walk-in shower, and thoughtful amenities like a Dyson hairdryer. However, it took a long time to warm up, and it would have been nice to have the option to open the windows a little for fresh air.
