Very poor and I want a full refund !!

Pros: Absolutely nothing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cons: The rooms weren't cleaned on arrival at 6.30pm and we only had access to the rooms at 7.30pm, when we'd requested 4.00pm check in !! The rooms were still dirty and very poor quality. There was no food available at all and we'd paid for evening meals due to a problem with the kitchen. There was no breakfast available either due to the same 'kitchen' problem.
