5. The service levels are basic, instead of receiving a warm welcome at reception the girl started a persistent upselling attempt at check-in ('you need to wait for your room till 3 pm, but if you are willing to spend the small amount of USD 300 more per night we can give you an oceanfront room right away').

7. From the moment you reach the entrance, at the gate you get the feeling that you are very much a 'haole' (a foreigner) that doesn't belong and is really not welcomed.
