1. ' If she could have given us a free access code, why didn't she? And what about the guests who have already paid the fee? is it fair to them that others who complained got for free what they paid for? We both had a very bad taste in our mouths with this place.

2. Staff were helpful, rooms clean and tidy, food was excellent and our waitress freindly and chatty, after reading some of the comments left by people that had a bad time i can only assume they expect too much or are incapable of looking after themselves we honestly could not fault this place.

5. I am defintiely not one of those serial complainers and whingers and this was the only bad experience of our five week trip but I don`t like people being deceived and paying out good money when you can do a lot better.
