Acceptable stay, some issues noted

sea viewpoor soundproofinglimited breakfast
The sea view from my Double Room Sea View was nice. It was what I expected.
The lack of soundproofing was a problem, as I could hear everything from other rooms. The curtains also did not block out enough light, so the room was bright very early. Breakfast had limited options. There was no cheese or cold cuts.

low water pressurethin walls
my stay wasn't exactly smooth sailing the shower barely dribbled water it was a known plumbing issue apparently. thin walls meant i was intimately acquainted with my neighbors conversations not ideal when you're trying to relax. the room could use a refresh mismatched screws everywhere spoke volumes about the maintenance budget

My shower had almost no pressure and reception told me they already knew about the problem I should not have been placed in that room at all. The hotel clearly needed a refresh.
