"Excellent room above the Italian restaurant! A little of the camaraderie in the restaurant as diners discussed the evening didn’t bother me, but just be aware if you’re put right above the restaurant there is a little noise. The other rooms out lying on the property would not have this. My room was very well appointed and spacious as well as the bathroom. Would stay here again!"
