The most important part of sleeping for me are the pillows. Their pillows were like cotton balls like you had nothing under your head which hurt my neck throughout the night. What I did was I folded up my thick hoodie and used it as my pillow. In terms of the food that you'll buy from the restaurant, the taste was excellent.
