Amenities at the hotel were overall okay, but the provision was inconsistent - however after speaking with housekeeping they provided what was missing. I was disappointed with their breakfast policy - you can only eat breakfast at the hotel, even when you have a really early check out - I was informed there were no exceptions even when I offered to pay for the breakfast yet it was a bed and breakfast booking.
