Acceptable Stay with a Disappointing Issue

satisfying buffetinconvenient parking
The breakfast buffet offered a satisfying variety of options.
I found the lack of on-site parking inconvenient, especially since it was advertised as available. This forced me to incur extra expenses, as I had to pay for parking elsewhere at a rate of 300-400 NOK per day. I feel this misrepresentation is unacceptable.
