East Cowes Marina ... and the dreadful problem of finding clean services
.
East Cowes used to be one of our favourite marinas, the wife and myself liked the showers, services and their cleanliness.
Last year however we were left disappointed. We complained a few times about the poor state of cleanliness of their showers. Both myself and wife often found toilets in poor state, dirty and with rubbish left around, and by talking to the managers we learnt that the services were cleaned only twice a day whilst it was clear to us that they should have been cleaned at least every two hours at peak times due to the high number of visitors (it was the week before Cowes Week right when the marina increased their daily visitor price).
It is unlikely that this year we will stop at East Cowes.
Isn't it dreadful that so many marinas' showers and toilet facilities aren't cleaned and maintained to decent standards? Shouldn't we all complain, or complaining is till too much un-English?
Note:
I changed the subject because I realized that East Cowes marina did not change hands last year as initially thought, and because in any case the point was about cleanliness and not about changing hands.
