underwhelming stay with issues

poor lighting old pastries
The room i had was supposedly a 'superior suite', but it felt far from it. the lighting was terrible. A bedside lamp didn't even work. breakfast was also disappointing. the continental selection included a few cereal boxes and some old pastries. it really didn't meet expectations and needs some improvements.

dog barking loud voices
the breakfast was very nice! i especially liked the hot food freshly cooked to order.
The noise really bothered me, especially since the hotel clearly stated no pets allowed. Throughout the night, there were loud voices and a dog barking in the next room. i struggled to feel comfortable and settle because the noise really interfered with my sleep. it was hard since we had an early start and a long drive back in the morning too.
