location good, but room issues
decent breakfastsqueaky bedssmall towels
the breakfast included was decent enough.
The room was far from ideal. the beds were squeaky. Any movement caused a disturbance. the towels provided were too small. I asked for larger ones but none were available, and the carpet was worn. these things ruined the experience.
