Arrived about 2.30pm on a beautiful sunny Easter Sunday. The staff on the ground were at an absolute minimum and it really showed. Had to wait 15-20 minutes to check in as there was only 1 person on reception. Not even an acknowledgement from the front of house staff. Wasn't asked if we wanted a 2nd key, wasn't asked if... More
