Mixed Experience at the Inn

limited optionsinadequate soundproofing
I found some issues . The breakfast buffet had limited options, and some items ran out quickly (I had to wait for refills). the soundproofing between rooms was INADEQUATE, so I could hear conversations and noise from neighboring rooms. This made it difficult to relax and get a good night's sleep. The noise DISTURBED me often.
