3.0 star property

"Vi havde indlogeret os på Club-house, som er den lidt mere eksklusive del, og der var også den mest fantastiske udsigt. Men værelset var fyldt med diverse insekter, som vi var nødt til at bruge lang tid på at få fjernet. Der var desuden også kun myggenet til dobbeltsengen, så dem der sov i de 2 enkeltsenge måtte leve med rummets insekter om natten, og der var mange forskellige slags, lige fra tissemyrer og bier til kæmpe græshopper. Morgenmaden var ok, men aftensmaden var relativt smagsløst....
