the included breakfast was a plus. the woman serving us seemed very attentive. the location provided easy access to the town. the room was clean.
the room was in the annex, and it lacked the charm of the main building. i could hear all the plumbing noises. a high pitched noise persisted in the bathroom throughout the night.
