Breakfast
However, several guests felt that the breakfast could be significantly improved. There were comments about the simplistic offering, mainly consisting of bread, ham and cheese with some guests desiring more international options. The pre-packaged nature of items, along with limited choices, disappointed many. Particularly critical were mentions of the high cost relative to the quality and variety provided, making it seem unworthy of the additional expense for some.
Moreover, inconsistencies and misunderstandings about whether breakfast was included in the room price also led to dissatisfaction. Instances of breakfast service being unavailable without prior notice further detracted from the overall experience for some guests. Therefore, while there are moments of satisfaction, it seems there is room for improvement to meet guests' expectations more consistently.
