Location is closed. Green pool - toilets in corridors. We booked 7 months ago and were not notified that the location was closed. Showed up and had to scrambled for last minute accommodations. Now I am fighting to get a refund. No one answers the phone.

Thanks for your review we are grateful you stayed here. With respect to breakfast either of you only had to say something regarding your order and it would have been rectified. Obviously you must have enjoyed it anyway.
