You paid low or whatever "special price" it is and get the "basic" room. If you think you paid high, then you may have to revisit your budget every time you travel.
@PackJetRoamКүн бұрын
I paid for the lowest category room, that's the price for advance booking. Anyone who booked for that category could be assigned to that room (with price ranging a few hundred dollars more than what I've paid), so it's non excusable for the condition regardless of what I've paid, I could have redeemed points and paid nothing for it but that doesn't mean I should get a room that's trashed

No problem 🙂 the video is only reflective of my personal experience so take it as you will as some people give me hate for it. It's not a bad hotel if they sort out all those issues but I cannot recommend it when those issues exist and they are charging those prices. There's a restaurant right next to the hotel called Olive tree if you are after some cheap food. Enjoy your trip

um you told me to go to Asia, why Asia? You are the one who said it not me. Why don't you say go to America, or Australia? Secondly there's a difference between a complaint and a review/critique, so educate yourself on that first, the title literally says "Review" so why are you here if you if you can't handle a negative aspect of a "review". Thirdly it is not a vacation, it is a job, I did not have to prepare myself because I booked it to test out the hotel. Most people book their hotel through the internet, where do you think people book their room from, a phonebook? 😂

I have met nothing but nice people during my time in Nadi. I am not sure what your problem is getting all worked up with a hotel review and using such vile language which does not represent the Fijian people that I know both where I'm from and during my time in Fiji. Anyone who comes across this comment thread should not put any weight on this person's character nor their comment as I believe they have ill intent to smear my video as I try to show the truth, which is often challenging and getting pushback by people with alternative agenda. If you want to visit Fiji, then go ahead and do so, if you still want to stay in this property after seeing this video, then go ahead as it is your money and you can spend as you see fit. I work hard for my money and I believe that I can get better value with it, that's my opinion and if you disagree with me I do not care because it doesn't change anything for me but don't come to the comment and give me a bunch of bullshit comment unless it is constructive criticism which this person is not doing.

FJ was the cheapest, Qantas did have a sale later on for slightly more and I may go with them if I knew but regardless FJ has some of the most competitive rates to Asia and North America. Air NZ is not one I would usually go for because they are the most expensive in this region, although they do occasionally have deep sale rate but it's normally one way only and restricted to one or a couple of dates in the near future.

Yes Qantas does have a far superior business class hard product in comparison to Air NZ, which will steal a lot of business travelers. Not to mention that Air NZ have to limit their weight on the west bound flight which Qantas can eliminate once they get the A350ULR bringing in more revenue per flight.

@PackJetRoam Жыл бұрын
I think it's a combination of factors that made my case worst, I have seen some other creators who are vegan and able to find food even after closing of the restaurant (we went to the same restaurant at the same time apparently 😂). I'm just a picky eater and have a bit more limited budget to work with and not being entirely familiar with the country just made things harder I suppose. But the few days I was in Seoul I was able to find food across the city but definitely need some planning for us with dietary requirements since we can't walk into any restaurant not knowing the language or understanding the menu.

And every convenient stores have different food so it doesn't get bored if I am to live with them day to day which is so great, and it's not very expensive either I believe it's around $5-10 including drinks. Yea the Metropolitan government building provide a great tourist spot for budget tourist especially but everyone can still enjoy it given that I believe there's no other observatories around that area? There are also many layers to each area that it would take a long time to really explore, I was only in Shinjuku and Shibuya for a day each and I barely touched the surface, I would probably spent a few more days next trip to discover every nook and cranny of that area because it's so fascinating and overwhelming with everything that's going on

Well as long as they cater for people with dietary requirements and the offering is not widely different to what the expectation of the type of food is being eaten then I don't see any issues. If I order a vegetarian meal and they serve me a banana then I would be outraged. One of the issues with the Qantas meal is the serving is smaller than I would have expected for a business class product, but for the price they are charging I cannot complaint either.
