small room breakfast shortage
the room was ridiculously small there was hardly room to move in it i think i was given this room because i was travelling with a child but he is 14 years old and therefore virtually an adult i did mention it to the receptionist who acknowledged it was small but said the building used to be a bank there was clearly a shortage of staff at breakfast which meant that the tables weren't cleared as people finished it was very unpleasant
