An Okay Stay

limited buffet stale pastries
The lack of soundproofing was a real issue. I could hear everything happening in the hallway and adjacent rooms. This made it difficult to relax or get a good night's sleep. the breakfast buffet seemed a bit limited. The pastries looked stale and the fruit selection was sparse. I expected a bit more variety and freshness considering what I paid.
