weak coffeelimited options
breakfast left me a little underwhelmed. the coffee from the machine tasted quite weak and not very good, i must say. the buffet's hot food felt rather basic, just the usual sausages and eggs. i wished they offered omelets or other egg options cooked to order from the kitchen, but it was not available. it could have been better.

the room was quiet, so i managed to get some sleep.
The bar staff seemed uninterested. I had to wave my arms around just to get their attention. also, the breakfast coffee tasted like dishwater. It was undrinkable.
