missing hooks toilet difficulty
The TOILET in my room flushed with CONSIDERABLE difficulty. The missing curtain hooks were also annoying. They made the room look unfinished. FOR the price, I really expected better attention to detail.

the hotel is close to local restaurants, a great convenience. i found parking easy with the on-site free parking available. my room was large and clean, it really provided a comfy space for me to relax after long walks. i ESPECIALLY liked the well-organised breakfast.
