Cons:

The staff member attending the breakfast area was quite rude. She repeatedly understocked the options, putting out only minimal quantities at a time—such as four pieces of bread or filling the waffle mix container only a quarter of the way. Additionally, the continental breakfast was very disappointing, offering only coffee, juice, waffles, and toast.

Pros:

all is well, location., cleanliness

Cons:

when I chekced out, I asked for a receipt, the lady told me to ask the 3rd party ---Booking. Yes, I booked from Booking, but I paid directly to the hotel at check in time. Booking did not supply the receipt as they did not get paid from me. Can you send me the receipt by e-mail?
