"I thought everything was OK except for breakfast. They really don’t offer much of a breakfast, or at least what I like for breakfast. I like a hot breakfast with eggs, either sausage or bacon, or biscuits and gravy something like that. I’m not in a cold cereal or a hard boiled egg or a waffle. So I went without eating breakfast there."
