inconsistent experience at this hotel
spotty wi-fi simple breakfast
the wi-fi signal was really spotty, i could not rely on it for work. it was frustrating. ALSO! the breakfast was quite simple, i expected more variety! it felt pretty basic for the price i paid. it was only a single dish choice with some fruit served by waiters, i wanted more options for the mornings!!
