helpful staff italian restaurant

The staff proved very helpful. the italian restaurant located next door provided excellent value. i found ample parking available throughout my stay. This was a big plus. the room was tidy upon arrival.

the breakfast sausages seemed slightly undercooked. they lacked adequate warmth, a bit disappointing. i think they could improve this detail.

some noise issues

thin walls inedible bacon

The walls felt paper thin. I could hear everything. i was placed between two very loud rooms. the noise from other guests made it hard to rest. the walls need better soundproofing, or the staff should consider room placement, its frustrating. also, the breakfast was not great, the sausage was burnt. bacon was not edible.
