A Grateful Guest's Experience

nearby parkingeasy walktasty breakfastthin curtains
The provided parking was nearby and convenient. The walk into the town for dinner was easy. The breakfast included tasty items made to order. The hosts were genteel. Their politeness was greatly appreciated.
Street lighting flooded the room I stayed in. The curtains being thin made it difficult to sleep. I think blackout lining would be very helpful.
