Just stayed there this weekend in a renovated room - the plank floors are nice! (And there's live music in the hotel restaurant on Friday and Saturday nights).

Update on the desk: There was a desk but that was built into the dresser/wall unit that spans the whole wall. The left third of the unit is a bench at a height that can be used as a luggage rack (as there was no folding luggage rack in the room), the middle third is dresser drawers with a countertop (and the TV mounted to the wall), and the right third is a desk. I'd say it was about 20 inches deep, so big enough for me to work on my laptop and have some papers out. I'll say I was impressed with the number of outlets - multiple electrical and USB outlets at the desk and on each night stand.

My drawback is with the design is that the room lamps used a very white LED bulbs, and that's just my personal preference for softer lightbulbs.
