The Inn at Nakoma

The Inn at Nakoma

8/10 Good
"The Inn building looks modern and well-maintained, with an attractive and welcoming lobby. My room was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything I needed. The overall design is simple, comfortable, and pleasant. There were, however, a few things I did not like. The sink is located at the entrance to the room rather than in a separate bathroom area, and it is not partitioned from the room in any way. The lighting around the mirror was only partially working, which made it difficult to apply makeup. The faucet is quite high while the sink is relatively shallow, causing water to splash everywhere. I had to place a towel on the floor to prevent slipping. There is also a decorative frosted glass partition between the bathroom and the room. While it looks attractive, light from the bathroom shines through into the room, and the silhouette of the person inside can be seen. This made the space feel less private and somewhat uncomfortable."
