Hard to believe this is 10 years old now. I go to Corec every day when I can. I prefer early morning because there's not as many people there when it's still dark out. Showers are barely lukewarm water at best, but I guess they are just trying to keep us out of the long showers.

We booked a room at 6:00 and it is now 7:00 and all of the workers took the keys and were not answering the phone afterwards. Only one worker in the wellness suite was helpful, and professional with helping us. We are clearly reserved for 6 PM and nobody is booked to work in the kitchen with us.
