Hotel maravilhoso

AS acomodações do hotel são fantásticas. O safari é muito legal. Conseguimos ver praticamente todos os bichos, O guia e o tracker muito atenciosos. Tivemos um problema com uma das reservas. Uma das pessoas foi bem solicita, mas o outro atendente parecia que estava fazendo um favor. Cobraram a acomodação duas vezes e ainda estou tentando resolver o problema.
