underwhelming stay lacking expected amenities

impersonal breakfast delivery lacking cleaning
the breakfast was delivered in a paper bag the night before it felt quite impersonal. i expected a warmer meal in a proper dining area. the room lacked daily cleaning services which was disappointing after a long day exploring. a simple refresh would have made a big difference a little dust was noticeable.
