nonfunctional wifihidden costs
The advertised free WiFi was barely functional. I had difficulty connecting outside the lobby. This made online communication very frustrating. Excursions had hidden costs. All-inclusive often meant extra charges for essentials. Long waiting times were common, and the excursions were not as advertised. I felt things could be managed better.
