terrible noise loud floor
the room was acceptable and i suppose the breakfast wasn't awful.
upon arrival, the noise insulation was terrible i could hear every foot fall in the room upstairs, complete with loud floor creaking. the person upstairs made multiple trips to the bathroom at night, each one waking me up. it really was not my best night's sleep.

Excellent Food and Service

clean room generous portions great staff
The room was very clean and perfect. The food was great and the portions were generous (I especially liked the steak). Staff members were great and provided great service.
Noise insulation between rooms needs improvement, as sounds from neighboring rooms were easily heard.
