Is breakfast worth paying extra for?

The cooked buffet breakfast includes bacon, eggs, beans, toast, cereals, and fruit for approximately £11. Good value if you want to skip café prices. Continental-only option is cheaper but smaller. Book breakfast when you reserve if you want a table.

How small are the rooms?
