Acceptable, but with issues

small portions limited vegetables
The breakfast was acceptable.
The food portions were small. The seasonal vegetables consisted of only a bowl of carrots. I expected a greater variety for the price (it felt overpriced).

breakfast buffet friendly staff convenient parking
the breakfast buffet had lots of options like cereal, pastries, and toast. staff was mostly cheerful and i found them to be friendly too. i had plenty of parking space , very convenient.
I did find the menu choices to be somewhat limited, especially for specific dietary needs. A friend could not find any vegan options, and adaptations were not possible.
