Many of our previous guests have shared that they typically skip breakfast or opt for something light. With the significant rise in labor costs and the price of breakfast ingredients over the past few years, we decided to make breakfast optional rather than include it in the room rate. This change allows us to reduce food waste and lower costs while still offering breakfast for those who prefer it.
