The playground kept our little one entertained for hours! They even provided a cot and high chair, so we didn't have to bring our own.

faulty television temperature fluctuation

The television in my room did not work properly. i attempted to watch a film one evening, but the signal kept cutting out. ALSO, the shower temperature fluctuated wildly. It went from scalding HOT to ice cold without warning. I found this a potentially dangerous problem especially with children.
