Breakfast

SHALLY RESIDENCE 1 presents a mixed experience when it comes to breakfast. On the positive side, there are praises for the breakfast being good, fresh, filling and nicely served in rooms. Guests appreciated the comfort accompanying their breakfast, describing it as varied and even fantastic with mentions of a lovely Arabic breakfast comprising ful medames, eggs, cheese, honey, jam, labneh and pickles. Some reviewers noted the breakfast as wonderful, fantastic, good and even large enough to be considered a feast, which underscores the quantity and assortment available.

However, some guests voiced dissatisfaction over the breakfast experience. Issues highlighted range from the food quality—with several mentioning spoiled eggs and bread—and lack of variety, to logistical problems like delayed or missed deliveries and suboptimal service. The breakfast items sometimes appeared repetitive, featuring mainly lentils, salted fava beans and eggs with little variation, leading to disappointment for those expecting more diverse options. There were also reports of breakfast being modest, very ordinary and in some cases not worth the price due to its limited choice and salty nature.

In summary, while SHALLY RESIDENCE 1 receives commendations for its plentiful and well-organized room service breakfast, it also faces significant criticism for inconsistent quality and monotonous offerings.
