It was an experience to stay in the hotel. It was really noisy during the night with people walking back and forth to their room from the toilets. One of the showers was cold in the morning. The little freezer froze our milk for our bubba. The setting was on too high. The room was cold at night. The little oil heater wasn't enough. We still enojoyed our experience
