- Listing some guests' complaints during the
> season
>
> 1. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local
> store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts."
>
> 2. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I
> often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be
> banned."
>
> 3. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost
> every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food at all."
>
> 4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had
> to bring our swimming costumes and towels."
>
> 5. A tourist at a top African Game Lodge over looking a water hole,
> who spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of
> this rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate".
>
> 6. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she'd been
> locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not
> disturb" sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the
> room.
>
> 7. "The beach was too sandy."
>
> 8. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your
> brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white."
>
> 9. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick
> and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.
>
> 10. "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday
> was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women."
>
> 11. "We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five Euros from a street
> trader, only to find out they were fake."
>
> 12. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were
> startled."
>
> 13. "There was no egg slicer in the apartment..."
>
> 14. "We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi

> took the Americans three hours to get home."
>
> 17. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends'

>
> 18. "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the accommodation’.
> We’re trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying there?"
>
> 19. "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks
