Decent Hotel but with Noticeable Issues

limited breakfast missing amenities
The breakfast was quite limited. Replenishment was slow. Arriving later meant cold eggs and missing items. There was a kettle, but no coffee or tea was provided in the room.

Acceptable Location, Disappointing Room

dated decor little variety
The location was acceptable for seeing main attractions.
The room decor felt dated and not particularly clean. Lots of dust was around. The breakfast offered little variety and was not very good. I ended up eating elsewhere on the last day.
