4. Checkin was very slow and some of the rooms that people had reserved didn't materialize; I ended up in a nice villa away from the beach/noise,etc, and then transferred to a room in the immediate hotel; the bell people and room service were greatcbut the people at the front desk tried and succeeded in overcharging almost everyone(or you didnt' get a room).

7. The shower in my room did not work well - it drained slowly and when you turned on the shower only about two thirds of the water came out of the shower spout with the rest still coming out below and filling up the slow draining tub.
