General Comments

Impressive reception area; generally friendly, helpful and hardworking staff. Good location close to promenade and bus station/shops; room clean with fresh towels every day; AI guests could 'book out' bottles of water on their card whenever they wanted (no drinking water in rooms). But the food we found to be very bland, boring, tasteless, occasionally disgusting and always cold in our case; evening meal a 'buffet' but meat and veg served by chefs giving out very small portions - I asked for more and got a dirty look along with another half a spoonful. I think the restaurant tables are far too close together, much shoving and pushing for the evening meal; shower heads very poor; television in room only has CNN and Sky News in English; orange juice for all-inclusive guests translates as a horrible orange squash, even when served as a meal course; long wait for snacks ordered at the bar, only ever one person on duty at bar. I though the entertainment was a joke and consisted of a couple on the keyboard every evening and the older folk doing ballroom dancing. We pre-paid for tea/coffee making facilities, but it wasn't in the room until we asked for it (note that teabags and coffee are of very low quality, but luckily we had our own, and the cartons of milk you get are really coffee creamer, but we discovered that you can ask for a glass of milk in the bar under the AI option). Very small outdoor pool - not a problem in October, but in the summer I'd think it would be hopelessly inadequate. Overall we felt 'cheated' because we expected to be staying in a four-star hotel and I think this is clearly not, I'd say it is two-star at most even with the pools. At the end of the holiday we were actually looking forward to going home.
