Wonderful hotel but beware of other guests.
Goodway Hotel now Plagoo Holiday Hotel greeted us with a look of surprise. There was no welcome drink even though the trek to the hotel is steep and a long distance. Initially, we were given the wrong room but it was rectified accordingly. Plagoo Holiday Hotel has wonderful landscaped grounds and a large well equipped pool. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Daily shuttle service is great. Without this service, it would be extremely difficult to leave hotel. On a negative note, Plagoo caters for a majority of Chinese tourists, and most do not have the same mannerisms as civilized people. The vulgar behavior even embarrassed my young daughters who had to witness disgusting unhygienic phlegm ridden spitting in and around the pool and eating area. Powerless staff looked on. The very boisterous behavior depicted characteristics unbecoming of grown adults. Do not expect the polite, expected protocols of lining up to be served. Some believe aggressive mannerisms are the only way to get what they want, first. These tourist disappear on day trips at 9am and return by 6pm, which in turn highlights the splendid facilities Plagoo has to offer. The breakfast changes every second day. Rooms are cleaned daily by unhappy staff who clearly depict the effects of daily abuse. Rules on behavior in and around the pool are clearly ignored. Diving and bombing into the shallow pool is constant by mostly grown middle aged men, and when splashed whilst eating dinner, it does not phase them. Smoking and throwing cigarette butts where they stand is the usual.
In closing, Plagoo Holiday Hotel can be a great hotel, but the clientele it chooses to target is its’ down fall.
