a basic stay with some issues
overpriced foodunclean dishes
The food was a real letdown. i found the restaurant offered overpriced food in small portions. securing a simple green salad seemed like a battle, and even then, there was no salad dressing or even olive oil available. I wouldn't eat there again. the breakfast also lacked healthy options, and i noticed some of the dishes and the dining area weren't very clean.

I found available parking upon arrival, a great benefit. The room offered enough space and was well-equipped.. Breakfast was adequate, allowing me to start my journey promptly. The staff provided quick assistance at check-in, which I appreciated after a long drive.
I encountered a noisy environment due to other guests. Doors slammed frequently, and voices carried easily through the walls. This disturbance impacted my ability to rest properly before continuing my travels the next day.
