some issues with noise and breakfast quality

poor soundproofing stale pastries

The noise insulation was definitely lacking. i could hear everything from neighboring rooms, including conversations and tv sounds. the breakfast was also a letdown. Pastries seemed stale, and the fruit tasted underripe. the fruit flies buzzing around the food were quite annoying, so i opted to buy breakfast elsewhere.
