small roomconstant noise

The room I was given felt quite small. I could hear a lot of noise from other rooms, including chatter and TV sounds. These issues really affected my stay. The lack of quiet was not ideal after a long day, though the location was perfect! though the parking was expensive.

Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues

acceptable breakfastwarm roomslow service

The breakfast was acceptable (nothing too special but enough options).

My room was uncomfortably warm, despite attempts to adjust the thermostat. It just wouldn't cool down. the evening meal I ordered from the bar had poor quality. It tasted bland and seemed overpriced for what I received (I expected much more for the price). The slow service in the dining area added to my frustration.
