Les Pins Blancs en Provence

This hotel could be amazing! However it wasn’t! The staff treat you like an inconvenience and I felt more like I was an institution for naughty children! I had fight to get more than 1 lumpy pillow each and was even told there was a limit of 3 per room… I then was told I could not borrow a cork screw to open wine we had purchased at a chateau they had recommended so we had to drive to the supermarket and buy one. We asked for ice and even that was rationed to one or two refills a day and at 5pm on a Saturday I was told no more ice as they had a full restaurant. It was 36degrees while we were there! We were then told off for leaving the patio door open while we were at the pool (5m away) and then further admonished for having glasses by the pool - which were actually plastic.. later that day my friend went for dinner in their restaurant and asked for portion of fries to take back to the room only to be told NO. Apparently no food is allowed in the room, my friend even offered to eat them on the terrace but was still told no! She did get some eventually! I also think that rule just applied to us, as later in the holiday the same waitress watched two guests fill up breakfast trays and take them back to their room! Other minor issue - the floors in the rooms we filthy as my feet were black after walking around while changing and one of the drawers had a handle missing and a large sharp screw sticking out which ripped a pair of my trousers! As I said the hotel could be amazing, the pool is lovely and the food is good, I just wish we weren’t made to feel like such an inconvenience!
