Having left the air con on while we were away from the room the previous evening, on returning discovered it was far hotter than outside, so we slept with the balcony door open. The consequence of this was being woken up several times during the night by the noise. The hotel is glass everywhere and so our room was getting very hot.
After breakfast, where we discovered omelettes were the best thing to be had, we went to see ‘guest relations’ to ask about our air con. She tried to fob us off with ‘it is controlled centrally’ but finally said she would get someone to check it out and also open our locked safe. Would we be in the room at 3.00pm, so we spent the rest of the day on the beach returning at 3. We sat in a stifling hot room until 3.30 and in the end Mal went downstairs and found one of the managers. Quite frankly he didn’t give a damn and said there was nothing wrong with the air con but someone did come back with Mal to open our safe. Mal came back to the room fuming because this is supposed to be a 5 star hotel!! The attitude of the staff is not good.
We ate our dinner in the outside restaurant and then went to the Agat Bar for cocktails. We tried two and they were awful. We weren’t the only ones who just left them on the tables, so downstairs to listen to the pianist who was very good.
