shriveled mushroomsancient toaster

the breakfast disappointed me the food looked like it had been sitting under the heat lamp for hours mushrooms were shriveled bacon was too hard to cut scrambled eggs looked unappetizing even the toaster seemed ancient it took forever to toast anything. also the shower didn't drain properly a really unpleasant smell came from the drains in the bathroom. i think the prices are too high for the quality of the room and the breakfast i experienced. i found dirty towels in the cupboard, dirty towels
