stale buffetoutdated furniture
i was disappointed with several aspects of my stay. the breakfast buffet seemed stale. also, the room was worn, and the bedding and furniture looked old (it was like the hotel needed updating). i found the small room size and the state of the furniture to be below standard. the furniture felt very outdated.
