dirty changing rooms missing amenities

the breakfast was alright, i mean, it was food, i guess.

The pool changing rooms seemed like they hadn't seen a mop in ages. my room promised juice and chocolates, but i only discovered a lone aero bar. the minibar fooled me. Turns out, it just housed water.
