breakfast optionsmissinghotel gym

The breakfast included several options. It was convenient. the location allowed easy walks to main streets.

The gym was missing, a disappointment. i expected more given similar hotels offer such facilities. It seemed like a significant oversight. this absence affected the overall value.
