early closing time stale pastry
The restaurant closing time on sunday was not clearly communicated. i found out it closed much earlier than expected. also, the breakfast provided was disappointing. It consisted of a stale pastry, a single piece of fruit, and some juice. i wish there were more substantial options or that i had chosen to eat at the shop across the street.
