Underwhelming stay. Needs improvement

small roommissing breakfast
I found several issues . My room was quite small. A bedside light was almost falling off the wall. Breakfast was not included. I thought it would be. The staff, while helpful, mentioned restrictions on giving out extra tea bags, a little disappointing.
