The breakfast offerings were described as basic but efficient by certain guests, providing a decent selection of beverages, bread and croissants, which aligned with their expectations given the price. However, multiple reviews pointed out the minimalist nature of the breakfast and the lack of diverse options with some guests experiencing empty buffets and out-of-stock items, particularly during peak times.
