poor breakfast nonexistent wifi
the room was quite nice and neat for the short duration.
The breakfast was quite underwhelming. The scrambled eggs tasted powdered, and the bacon was barely cooked. also, the wifi signal was practically nonexistent in my room. It made working remotely impossible and was irritating, considering it's advertised as a key amenity!
