"Abbiamo soggiornato al campo tendato per una sola notte e l’esperienza ĆØ stata nel complesso positiva. La tenda era ampia e confortevole, dotata di diverse coperte, utili vista l’assenza del condizionatore. Avremmo però apprezzato una maggiore attenzione alla pulizia e abbiamo riscontrato un problema con l’acqua calda.

"The photos are simply untrue. The camp is in poor condition - broken chairs & lanterns; blankets thrown about; garbage strewn here & there. There is only one outlet in each tent and electricity was not always available. We had less than five minutes of hot water over 48 hours. Often one teenager was the only staff on site, and we had to communicate using Google translate, as the adults simply were not around.
