There should be alerts to users of the small pool that it is deep at one end. The night I checked in, I went into the pool at the deep side. Not aware of the height, I struggled to grab the edge of the pool as I sank and sustained scratches to my left arm when my skin rubbed against the rough surface.
We stayed there for three nights. We had buffet breakfast on the first morning there so we could control the time, but on the second day, we had to order from the menu (as there was no buffet) and we had to wait a long time for the food to arrive. If we had been told about this arrangement earlier, we would have gone earlier for breakfast.
