mixed feelings about this stay

missing sugarlate breakfast
The heating was off when i arrived. It was pretty cold that night. no sugar was in the room, and i couldn't find anyone to ask. the breakfast time was also inconveniently late for me. i only got one cup of coffee, and nobody came back to offer more. it was frustrating.
