Excellent stay, minor hiccup

maintained grounds perfect service relaxing spa helpful advisor
The hotel had well maintained grounds. Breakfast had good variety. I found the team provided perfect service. Martha at the spa gave extra care to my weak shoulder. This helped me relax. I appreciate the relaxing spa treatments. Veronika always helps and gives advice. Nothing is too much trouble for her.
The gym had machines. Many did not work. This was a small issue . Otherwise, i find all facilities are in good condition.

limited drinks broken air conditioning
I found the pool towels were only changed every third day at the spa. That seemed excessive. many strange rules confused me and made me forget i was on vacation. you couldn't get all inclusive drinks after 11 pm. This limitation was frustrating. the air conditioning in my room stopped working one night, and i had to contact the tour operator to get it fixed. cockroachs and ants were present in the hotel and room, concerning.

hotel shop extra charges
the location was acceptable. it's a short distance to the city center.
I was very frustrated! the hotel shop is extortionate. the hotel charged guests more than non-hotel guests to use the beach. I was shocked. it was like there were extra charges for everything in this hotel, so unfair.
