I have not tried to have a look around the DB and to be honest we prefer the Havanah to the Mango, I cannot comment on the attitude of people who manage the DB but if what people say is right, then that is not much different from other top hotels. We experienced the same problem in Crete and Cyprus so it is not uncommon. Before we cast critisism, maybe we should take a step back and look what reception we would get if we tried to gain entry in top class hotels in our own country. Imagine if we walked in to a hotel in London armed with towel and flip flops with a the intention of using the pool. I think we have been spoiled by the hospitality we receive in SS, so I would not lose much sleep over the lack of hospitality shown towards us in  the DB.

Hi

Sorry but I tought i'd add my feelings to this subject!!

We often go to the Mango Bar and have been treated wonderfully by all of the staff - so I don't have a bad word to say, although we have not tried to enter the hotel complex!!

Getting beck to negative/positive postings. SS is not Utopia and I think it is wrong if all we get is praise of the resort. Nowhere in the world is wonderful, and perfect. I think you should be able to post a negative comment if that's how you feel, however, I do not think you should become personal nor 'nasty', just because you have had a bad experience.

I have posted my true views of eateries/accommodation (of which some people might think as negative), but I have also tried to reason as to why we possibly had a bad meal/stay. I have never stated anything other than our experience, but I know that I have offended people because some think of these places as nothing less than wonderful and beyond any critcism.

Everyone is different, and we all like different things but we should not be blinkered about SS. I love it for what it is. Some things are good, some not so, but we should be able to vent our feelings without causing offence and give a true (personal) view as to what SS is all about.

Well written Gillywoo and agreed with everything you said...I once on here mentioned that I had a bad meal at a certain place in S.S.My god I was jumped on from a great height by all the usual suspects in those days..Some were most rude to me and tried to be very superior in their put downs of me. I always went back with humour but thats how it was a while ago. I was told this is how I would be treated by many chums in S.S and they weren't wrong....Anyway that was a while ago and I ended up getting my own back in the end....All forgiven now and we move on..This site has certainly got better over the last 2 years and is a credit to everyone who uses it.

Hi everyone!
San Stefanos is not perfect or utopia - some things irritate - people locally fall out with each other - like life anywhere! - - - but by heck I love the place!!

I read right through all of this again tonight, being individuals, we will never all agree on everything, we are entitled to our own diverse opinions as well.
Everyone - and I mean everyone - has made very good  - if opposing points - so can we now agree to disagree, and move on?
I hope now we can lay this subject to rest before it gets too heated - after all this is a great forum and we don't want to fall out with each other,
we don't need to agree with everything  - and the subject is getting a touch stale now -
of course if you disagree - - - - - - - - - -
I await the next post!! LOL

Jimbo:
It's good to see a bit of balance and rationality. I agree with Tony - enough has been said. But we do need defend our right to say it.
