Showering

The shower had no safety rail for stepping in and out of the shower. We had to step in and out of the bath was a bit dangerous.

Shame one person let the place down

All was ok with the rooms, and communal areas. Lovely breakfasts although disappointing not having some of menu available. Magie as always was efficient and entertaining at breakfast. Our only complaint was the manager challenged our son who was sat on balcony having a drink waiting for us. Accusing him of not being a guest and drinking his own beer. It was Red Stripe and he had chosen not to have a glass. The manager didn't know they sold Red Stripe. On realising his mistake, no apology was offered, which is bad management and rude!!
