Fire alarm.

My stay was ok, other than the fire alarm going off at 3am. No explanation, no apology. My room was adequate and the fried breakfast was good. Service at breakfast was ok, but as there was only one person covering breakfast, there was no greeting and I was very much left to sort myself out.
