uneven experience
slow service unprinted receipt
The breakfast service was slow and understaffed. It caused delays. Many breakfast items ran out without immediate replacement. I requested a receipt at checkout, but the staff member couldn't print it. I was told the receipt would arrive via email, though this was an INCONVENIENCE.
