we were here the last week of march only returned home today. on arrival we were greeted by a simple hola which is fair enough if they don't speak English some of the staff are arrogant but others are cheerful and helpful i found the men were better than the woman at understanding English and at talking to you there are some better than others . the complex is spotless very clean can't fault it there the maids were in cleaning 5 times a week and towels were changed every second day we were there for 7 nights and did not see one cockroach. the beads were not that great but are sleepable the sofa bed in the kitchen/living room was the best one for me. there was no kettle when we arrived so i asked in reception but because it was late when we got in the man at reception said yes we have a kettle but you will have to get it in the morning which is fair enough as it was half 11 at night so we asked in the morning but it was a different man at reception this time and he said no kettle we don't have i don't know if he didn't know what a kettle was but we did not get one anyway. but we did go down to the faro 2 shopping center which is empty all the shops have closed but there was a market on just outside it and we managed to pick up a kettle for 2 euros. we went half board which was not great as the food was terrible the breakfast was no more than ok mainly cheese and hams you might be lucky to get some beans or even a few scrapes of dry scrambled eggs one morning. there was green beens and meatballs . they cater mainly for eastern Europeans dutch and Germans its filled with them the dinner was not the best mainly chips and watery pasta is the whack but we did get some chops and fish one night made a good change but if i am to go again i will be going self catering! you will also need to pay for the safe key think it was 11 euro a week and a deposit of 7 for the key itself . you will have to pay for the air con and tv as well . taxi's and buses are cheap 3-4 euro to playa de ingles which has more going for it than maspalomas. if you are eating out it is expensive and drinks 2 you are cheaper to have a pint of beer than a glass of coke. i think i have covered everything but if any one has any questions here is my email just incase i have missed anything out thanks for reading
