Room too hot and a about dated

Room was too hot, no air conditioning apart from floor standing fan which we had to climb up ladder to mezzanine to bring down to lower level to give any effect. Could not open windows due to sandflies and being bitten. Would have expected heat pump based air con unit and fly netting on windows. Bed was comfortable but duvet cover was too heavy. Mezzanine would be unsafe for young children to sleep in and too hot. The in-room fridge generated a lot of heat. Some lodge guests very noisy, especially those leaving early in the morning. TV channels very limited. In-room kettle lid did not open so difficult to fill with water. Restaurant meals (breakfasts/dinners) were good. Seating in restaurant uncomfortable and a bit dated
