Why is the breakfast a problem for someone with diabetes?
A continental breakfast usually entails mostly carb-filled stuff -
bagels, doughnuts, waffles, cereal, etc. �Not good for diabetics.
Not only carb filled, but with the wrong kind of carbs such as white flour.
IME, the Hampton Inn usually has tea, coffee, juices, hard boiled
eggs, various kinds of cereals like oatmeal, and some cold cereals
like raisin bran and cheerios, �bananas, apples and other whole fruit
in addition to the donuts, waffles etc. �It varies from place to

have what I think of as a regular continental breakfast of pastries
and coffee.- Hide quoted text -

very true and rarely Hard Boiled eggs. Wish they had that as a choice
its hit and miss

I don't think I have ever seen hard boiled eggs at an buffett, except at
the allinclusive we stayed at in Mexico. Most of the less expensive
hotels it is hit or miss if there will be something Kevin can eat. If
they all had scrambled eggs or omelets, it would work. This is why we
prefer Embassy Suites or Residence Inns which "always" have good choices.

The nicest free breakfast I've seen was in Williamsburg. I think it
was a Quality Inn & Suites. It was a full cooked to order breakfast.
I wonder if they still have it.
