Acceptable stay.

delicious food cute staff breakfast unavailability inconvenient settling
The room had a beautiful view. The food tasted delicious! The staff were cute. They were a great team.
I had difficulty specifying my preferred breakfast time due to an early departure. Consequently, there was no one available to prepare breakfast at 8 am, and no one available for settling my bill later. That was inconvenient.

sandpaper towels constant road noise
the breakfast WAS acceptable, i guess.
The shower was a total joke, sputtering lukewarm water and NO pressure. the towels seemed like sandpaper, too. plus, the noise from the nearby road NEVER stopped. Earplugs REALLY should be provided.
