That's okay, hotel breakfasts are almost always awful in my experience.
“continental” “breakfast”
If there's bacon and sausage, no matter how sad looking, it's American breakfast.
Continental breakfast is European style — bread, butter, and jam, pastries, maybe some yogurt. Hardboiled eggs if you're lucky.
especially if it's sad looking
I can taste the continents already
That's not continental, that's American breakfast.
Also, is that a disposable plate? Never seen such thing in a hotel, you must stop booking on Airbnb.
FREE hotel breakfasts are almost always awful.
If I'm going to have to pay for breakfast anyway, I might as well go to a restaurant that specializes in breakfast.
Dame, where in the world are you staying. Most hotels in my country have good to amazing breakfast and I have never heard about paying for breakfast.
In the US, most "free" (or included) hotel breakfasts range from bad to terrible. There are some exceptions, but they are few and far between.
Whereas my experience in Scandinavia was the opposite. Breakfasts were generally included or at least offered, and they ranged from alright to amazing. The only issue I had was that they all seemed to be following the same playbook (more or less). Some more variety would be nice.
That sounds like the Swedish hotels I know, alright to amazing, but mostly the same stuff. Personally I'm perfectly fine with that as I know there is always something I can eat, that is a very comfortable feeling when I'm out and about.
Like the other guy said, this is the US we’re talking about. Please tell us what country you’re from so I can come verify your claim myself.
Sweden and you are so welcome.
Thanks, I'll consider it.
At least in America yeah unfortunately
Gross eggs, overcooked bacon, burnt waffles. Not my style either. Your right
