Had breakfast in the lounge this morning since I was in a rush and it was fine - but think I'll make my way to the restaurant tomorrow morning.
I do find the inclination to leave a towel arrangement on the bed and note from housekeeping a bit odd though, but trying not to be unreasonable about something trivial and well-intentioned!
It's still my favourite , that and the Waldorf.....I had some irritating lounge issues there a while back and stopped staying at weekends, however my last stay was a Saturday night and was rather pleasant.
