Not good

Hotel.com had put me into a room situated at back of hotel when I stated a sea view! The room was not good, on suite was crammed, doors wouldn’t close, the whole stay ruined by this.
Plastic door into toilet not closing and was insufferable.
Looking into toilet seeing the shower door would not close properly
The on suite was cramped and discussing
