Answer:
The coffee shops are very different from each other. Ones serve great food and others serve bad food. Asturias coffee shop has the best food. The problem is that it is not neat. Lots of students go to that coffee shop and the tables are always dirty. The chairs are the least comfortable in the university and are never well placed. When I don't go eating with my friends there, I prefer to take the food to my room.

Explanation:
The Simple Preterite indicates an enunciated action that is considered finished. It applies to actions completed in the past that are not necessarily related to the factual status of the present situation.
It is used in Spanish to express: actions that take place at a certain moment in the past in a timely manner or a new action that occurs in the past and that interrupts a course of action that was already in progress and that is expressed in the past tense.
On the other hand, the imperfect past tense of the indicative is a frequent tense in Romance languages. It describes an action or state in the past whose time limits are not relevant, that is, a grammatical time of the past with a grammatical aspect. It is used in Spanish to express courses of past actions whose beginning and end are not specified.
Fill in the blanks using the correct form of the verb in parentheses.
