mixed feelings about this hotel

many breakfast optionsstained carpetsbad soundproofing

the breakfast had many options, acceptable.

The room seemed a bit dated (not exactly falling apart, but close). i also noticed the carpets looked quite stained. the soundproofing wasn't great. I could hear everything happening in the hallway.
