Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking countries breakfast can range from a simple café con leche and toast to a full continental or even a hot‑buffet. When you ask if it’s included, specify the type you expect (e.g., 'desayuno continental' or 'desayuno buffet') to avoid surprises. Also, note that 'estancia' is more formal than the colloquial 'estadía', which is common in Latin America.
