The breakfast tasted a bit too much of Asian food for my liking. I wasn't thrilled. when I asked for a blanket, the owner just gave me one without a word. Customer service could use some work I think. It's a shame. A smile goes a long way, especially considering that breakfast timeframe. was only half an hour
