8. Hotel staff recommended their 96 item breakfast buffet, but the entire buffet was awful; cut fruits were not replenished often enough and were not ripe; whole fruits were green with mold; pastries were a week old it seemed; pancakes and waffles from the buffet were horrible, bacon virtually tasteless strips of fat; egg omelets are the powdered variety served in about every hotel that features an "omelets chef" but if you requested, fresh fried eggs were available.
