Acceptable Stay with Breakfast Concerns

convenient locationcold foodlacking detail
The location near the station was convenient.
The breakfast quality was disappointing. The buffet-style setup lacked an a la carte option, and the food was cold despite the high price. Attention to detail was also lacking, leaving me underwhelmed.
