Odd check in process.

At check in you need to enter all your personal data on the phone again to book a breakfast time. And you do not get a time that works for you.

1 Star. For location.

Really has gone down hill. Used to be my usual place to stay. No room service? Breakfast was terrible. Couldn’t eat it. Just really looks like they’re cutting corners.
