Breakfast was a delight, featuring a delicious variety of food and drinks. The location is fantastic, just a short distance from the terminal, ensuring easy access to everything. Plus, I felt safe throughout my visit. It was refreshing to be about 1 km away from McDonald's, enjoying the unique local atmosphere.
