Mixed experience with VERY loud music

accommodating staffloud musicpoor ambience
The staff were friendly and accommodating.
The music was excessively LOUD. It was pumping out from the stage at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. The music did not fit the afternoon ambience or the current clientele.

The staff were very good. They maintained excellent communication throughout my stay. Breakfasts were also excellent. I found a handy bar that provided good bar meals.
I didn't like the many staircases and heavy fire doors. I struggled with my bags due to the heavy doors slamming shut. The restrooms downstairs are all up and down staircases.
