    continental breakfast is a light option typically consisting of pastries and baked goods, fruits, toast, and coffee. It is usually served buffet-style , I love the ones I had in France

    Most continents is a cold breakfast usually consisting of a pastry (E.g. croissant or pan au chocolate), fruit & in some place yogurt &/or cereal. Where as a cooked breakfast is well as is in the name - cooked food. Continental has nothing to do with buffets as you can have a continental buffet (cold buffet).

    sometimes, you get what you pay for. I haven't watched the whole thing yet but just walking into the room and the way the beds were made is shady... and if the bed frame doesn't work and the bed mattress is springy and squeaky, but most of all I'd be worried about BED BUGS as those travel in your van and all your clothes, I hear SUCH a pain to get rid of... that would be my biggest worry... and the cleanliness of the place(if the dishes aren't clean then bed sheets probably aren't either) and then safety of people coming in the night and then bugs - cockroaches, mice and who knows what else, especially if they never clean under the bed. you may be braver than me if you do sleep there.It may be cheaper than other places but the place is clearly falling apart - the wood is all scratched/windows falling apart, doesn't give a good feeling although I've seen worse in Las Vegas vlogs. I can't believe people can bring any money on some of these. it should be $1 and even then I wouldn't stay at some.

    To me a continental breakfast is an uncooked breakfast so it’s usually baked goods, cereals, cheese, fruit! ☺️
    But gosh that hotel owner needs to give some TLC to that hotel….I hate to see people having a business with great potential and ruin it for themselves by not taking care of it….
    Like a bit of modernisation & a decent clean and it could be great.
    I personally think every hotel needs a good bed & a good bathroom! Everything else is a bonus. I would crack up with the creaky bed.
