poor soundproofing inedible onion rings
I was not impressed with the soundproofing. I could clearly hear conversations from the adjacent room, which started before 7 AM. This seriously impacted my rest. My dinner was also disappointing. While the starters were fine, the main course was overcooked and the onion rings were not edible. I expect a better standard of food preparation!!!
