service and noise need improvement

loud musicinattentive staff

the noise from a wedding on the premises was unacceptable. loud music persisted until late , disrupting sleep. i also found the staff somewhat inattentive , particularly at the bar. ordering drinks required going to the bar myself , as staff did not take orders from the seating area.
