an okay stay, nothing special
loud noisepremade food
The noise level WAS a major issue. i could hear everything from the pub downstairs UNTIL late, even with earplugs. this made it difficult to sleep AND get any rest. the breakfast was also disappointing. It tasted like pre-made food.

The staff were very friendly and cute. The food standard was good. My cozy room was well presented.
The windows only block out the wind, road noise and customer chatting leaks right through. All towels, beddings, and the chair had a smell. I thought they smelled of sweat.
