basic but noisy stay

highway proximityconstant traffic
the room was quite small, and it differed from the pictures i saw online. our cottage was close to the highway. it was very noisy throughout the night. it was hard to sleep well, with the constant traffic sounds. the noise really detracted from any relaxation i hoped for.
