musty smell murky pool
The breakfast had enough variety to make it acceptable, I suppose.
I found the room had a rather musty smell when I first entered. The pool looked nothing like the pictures. It was very warm and murky.

the room was clean upon arrival.
The breakfast was a letdown. It lacked variety. the pastries were limited to croissants, a single muffin type, and scones. the omelets tasted bland and unpleasant, disappointing.
