William

Disliked: Staff & service
My first morning there property staff greeted me by asking where I was from and immediately attempting to engage me in a discussion about politics. I’m on holiday, not interested. My room was switched before I got there but that room was locked. The room available to me had all the windows opened with the AC running when I arrived so it was very hot. After closing the windows, the AC couldn’t keep the space cool. The shower is tiny. The amenities are all dated.
