Mixed Experience, Some Issues Noted

loud air conditioningstale pastries
The air conditioning unit was excessively loud. I found it difficult to sleep well, and it disrupted my rest. The breakfast selection looked nice at first, BUT the pastries tasted stale. The coffee tasted burned.

Acceptable, but Could Be Better

breakfast choicenoisy air conditioning systempoor solution
The breakfast was pretty good. Lots of choices were available.
The air conditioning was so loud. I had to turn it off completely. The receptionist mentioned she knew about this problem. She offered a heater for the second night, but that did not address the main issue of the noisy AC system. It was a poor solution, for such a well known issue.

The breakfast buffet offered a good selection of food. Parking was available.
The air conditioning system in my room was very loud. I could not sleep well because of it. Turning off the AC made the room too cold and the bathroom was outdated.
