The Expedia description mentioned "breakfast", not a cup of coffee and a Dollar-Tree-quality pastry. There was no coffee or "breakfast" on Dec.25th due to the attendants' day off. It seems that the breakfast counter is run by Starbucks, not by Sonesta. The description should say "Starbucks on site, closed for holidays", and this hotel shouldn't be coming up for "breakfast included" searches on Expedia. In addition, the pool was cold, and its filters were also taking a day off for Christmas. There aren't any restrooms near the pool. Not suitable for kids.
