Room is too noisy.
We stayed at room 326. The room is close to the road and was very very noisy. My wife lost her sleep the whole night.
wonder if the windows are sound-insulated.

The air conditioning unit woke me up in the middle of the night.
Still wondering why there was a second sink/vanity just outside the bathroom.

The rooms are a good size. They have a woodsy, cabin-like theme. We also enjoy the make your own Belgium waffles for breakfast when we stay at the Black Bear Inn.
