All the hotels i ever stay in anymore don’t have a restaurant or a bar just bare bones. I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express once and it had a pancake machine
Holiday Inn Express is the most miserable breakfast I’ve ever had in a hotel. The selection was basically lard with sugar on it, and whatever drink you chose tasted of chlorine.
I’m normally not much of a breakfast person, but work had booked me in at HIE once, and as I had a long day ahead I had to force myself to eat something. And the selection available didn’t exactly make it easier.
After that I always make sure to book the hotel myself. I’m not that picky in terms of hotel, as long as the eatery is decent.
I never had tap water in the US that didn’t. No wonder why bottled water is so popular there. I’m sure they have better water in more mountainous states, but TX, LA, MS and AL tastes like chlorinated swamp.
Most of my life I’ve lived in places where the tap water comes from natural lakes in nearby mountains, with bird poop as the only additive. I therefore notice the chlorine very easily, to the point where my coworkers claim they don’t notice it at all.
In New Zealand our tap water is mostly okay to good, with the exception of Whanganui. Tap water there has lots of lime (not the fruit) in it so I tend not to drink tap water as a habit, despite living in the south island now which has nice and cold tap water pretty much everywhere. Never heard of chlorine in the tap water around here lol
It does, not really sure how to describe it other than unpleasant, maybe metallic like. It also leaves residue in boiling jugs that needs to be cleaned periodically.
Yeah, uh… Don’t know how to say this, but if your water smells like chlorine, I don’t recommend drinking it.
Might be ok for survival, but it’s definitely not for regular consumption.
I like Drury Inns. They do have the standard “breakfast ends at 9:30” thing which sucks for late sleepers, but they also have a 5-7 pm “happy hour” with snacks and both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks provided gratis. It’s a way to avoid paying for dinner if you can do it and you don’t care about your dinner being snacky stuff, but if you’re on vacation, let dinner be snacky stuff.

Well that’s concerning

Does lime have a flavor to it?

Pancake machine sounds fancy.
Thanks! It’s my nickname!
