We tried the Riu Rooftop bar and it was lovely. The buffet breakfast was great. However, the weekend start time was a bit late compared to weekday. We had to check out at 7:15 and missed it. Hotel staff did not allow or offer us a small bag of pastry to go before we check out even though the 3rd person breakfast was charged
