Hotel style accomodation for the overnite traveler should have the following detail shampoo, soap, coditioner tissues and towells you cant see through. The beach retreat had none of these not even a face washer. This is let down particularly as it was a hotel style room and we were working all day did not finish the job, did not come... More
