Was not told when we booked in to take our breakfast up to our room then. As it was part of cost, it was not delivered to our room, thought it may be outside room next morning but was not. Also no book inside room telling us anything at all. Would have liked to know if bottle of wine was complimentary or we had to pay if we drank. No book, no know.
