small portions rotten fruit
I found the breakfast quite disappointing. There were often no coffee available, just filter coffee. The portions seemed small, with only a limited choice of items, and the food were not particularly tasty. It also became obvious to me there was no marmalade available, and the fruit included on the breakfast plate looked rotten.
