poor lightingbreakfast time
I was quite disappointed with a few things. first, the lighting in the car park was very poor, and i felt quite unsafe returning alone at night. also, the reception informed me that breakfast was at 8am due to other guests having booked later slots. I didn't appreciate this system as i had paid for breakfast and didn't get to enjoy it at a time that suited me.
