Acceptable Stay with Some Definite Issues

clean roomcigarette smokepoor english
The room was clean enough, I suppose.
The cigarette smoke was overwhelming. I could not seem to get away from the smell. The staff's English was not very good. Communication was difficult, and it felt isolating at times.

the room was clean and big, it conformed to our reservation.
the spa was supposed to provide swimming caps and towels, but they were out of caps. they wanted us to purchase them ourselves from the spa for $5 each. we fought for over 40 minutes before they finally got us caps. not all staff spoke english too, that was a bother.
