separate entrance large room great breakfast
The room had its own entrance separate from the restaurant. The room was large and provided everything I needed. Breakfast was great (especially the pancakes!).
There were not enough sockets. I could not charge devices without unplugging other things.

a mixed stay, some issues present
non-functional television inflexible breakfast
The television in the room did not function . i found this quite frustrating. also, the breakfast arrangement was not ideal. I felt pressured to choose a meal without knowing the menu. this made planning my morning rather difficult, i hope this can be addressed.
