generous breakfast central location

The breakfast was generous. I noticed the staff was always ready to provide assistance. The parking location, though not on-site, was very close. The central location made exploring the area very easy.

missing plug ineffective curtains

The bathroom cleanliness was not satisfactory. I found the condition less than ideal. The sink lacked a plug. there was no hand soap or shower gel provided, which I consider basic necessities. A hot water pipe created a constant knocking noise within the room and this was quite distracting. The curtains did not effectively block out light, since they were set too far from the window frame.
