inadequate handling overgrown bushes
the villa was spacious enough.
i booked a time, only to find out upon arrival that the spa had no record of it. Nobody seemed to take responsibility. the handling of this issue at the spa reception felt inadequate and affected my plans for the day. It was a real letdown. the overgrown bushes blocked the view from the hot tub. I could see nothing.
