The location is good, the breakfast buffet is diverse and plentiful, the bed is comfortable, there is adequate lighting. But why are there no black tea bags in the room, only green tea? This malady seems to infect hotels the world over, but it's inexplicable to me.

The breakfast buffet was sumptuous, and the bed was very comfortable. On the pet peeve side, why does the cleaning staff (at most hotels, including this one) never replace the black tea bags that I use on the first night I am there? Do they not check what's been used and needs to be replaced? Do they assume that no one ever drinks black tea? Do they not wonder what the two used teacups were used for? I don't get it.
