cold plates tough toast
The room was clean. I guess that's something.
The breakfast was a complete joke. Cold plates are apparently their specialty. the toast was so tough. I think it could have doubled as a weapon. and the shower? good luck figuring out how to turn it on and off without scalding yourself.
