hard yolksjuice refill
The breakfast service was not great. poached egg yolks were hard even after i asked for soft eggs the second day, i sent these back, and got fried eggs instead, i just accepted them. also, fruit juices and continental breakfast items were not refilled. They ran out. when i asked for orange juice to be refilled, they brought one glass to my table. Others who arrived later had empty juice containers filled
