One recurring concern from travelers is whether breakfast and buffet menus include premium items such as lightly salted salmon in the morning, mango/guava/strawberry juices, and seafood like crab, shrimp, and mussels. These items matter to guests choosing a hotel, but the messages do not confirm them directly.
