| i'm not sure what the 'mini's' there for, but physical, there are two rooms connected via a small central room (6 feet by 5 feet?) to a bathroom and the hallway. Some suites consist of one double room and one triple room, so five people. I don't think any have two triples. Most have two doubles- not that many triples exist in the mini suites.
It's roomier but has some draw backs- it's a bit more isolated than the high rises because of there are fewer people for hall, you're less forced to leave the room (primarily because of the bathroom in suite as opposed to shared with the hall), and people are less likely to just see what's going on inside because there are two doors so they're harder to keep open and you can't see 70% of the room by just glancing in from the hall like you can in the high rises. However, they're brand new, nicer, larger, the furniture is great, and you can certainly make friends in them. To maximize friends, i'd say go with the high rises, but the niceness and greater expense is worth it for many. mini suites also lack the cooler ground floor lounge . . . but yah. Good luck. |
