The breakfast buffet included hot meal such as scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon. They also have espresso machine. The room was above average bed/pillows were really nice. The shower barrier was short so water splashed everywhere in the bathroom floor when I took a shower. The staff were courteous but all business like."
