Also the definition of breakfast is best applied to pets and small animals because the amount and quality of food given is not meant for a full grown human adult.

I often eat at six am and at 8 pm. I need a largebreakfast since theres usually a 12 hour gap minimum between my meals. Also people do manual labor jobs for example, I ate a lot more when I was wroking at an amazon warehouse. Nearly the sam amount I ate in middle school.

Pretty much every holiday inn I stay at for work has had a decent breakfast. They run 6:30 to 9 and keeps things well stocked at least until 8 (I'm never there later)

They've all had the same "menu", plus or minus a few things. They tend to rotate the hot items every otherday.

  • An omelet thing, cheese or veggie
  • Scrambled eggs
  • Home Frys
  • Gravey and bisket
  • Sausage and/or bacon
  • A 1-minute pancake machine that usually works...kind of
  • Ceareal
  • fruit
  • A juice machine
  • Coffe
  • Hot water
  • Hot cocoa packs
  • Tea pouches
  • Milk cartons (these are usually terrible, a lot are weird "organic" brands or "skimed to be 90% water")
  • Yogurt
  • Bagles, English muffins, and toast
  • Cinnamon rolls
  • Muffin

I stg it used to be (probably around pre 2020) that even the shitty hole in the wall motels had like pretty comfy solid breakfast - bagged eggs (my guilty pleasure) and cool steampunk communal toasters and shit. now it's like mini cereal boxes and maybe bagged muffins.

getting old is hell. everything gets worse and most people just try to ignore it

Hotels have gotten worse. I travel for work often and I can see it. Housekeeping every day isn't a given anymore since Covid and the breakfasts have continued to decline. Pretty much all I will get at hotel breakfast these days is an apple and nuclear reactor temperature coffee.

Yeah,same for me. I avoid non-chain-operated hotels for that meanwhile - they are usually worse and often the owners are on such a high horse that they expect you to be thankful to spend your money there. With hotel chains you at least have a central customer support you can complain to.

Last highlight: Was in a mid-market private hotel (no chains around there) and on the first evening my toilet seat broke. I mean, yeah, I am a little bit overweight but not nearly enough for that being the cause normally, so very likely it was just wear. Happens, no biggie.

The reaction of the owner was the reason why I will never visit that establishment again - and neither will any of my staff: First they tried to ridicule me/accused me of intentionally vandalism, then they tried to make me put it through my insurance (won't fly, they won't pay a thing unless they can prove proper maintenance). And then she took 5 days to repair the bloody thing.

Saw her treat her staff incredibly bad as well...so..

Yeah, neither my staff nor me will come back. That makes them lose around 10k in income. But hey, it's just "that remote working thing" and "everything getting more expensive". Nope. It isn't. It's them.
