Max,
I have to agree with you about the water. I'm currently hovering in Phuket, Thailand and although everyone has bottled water etc, the mini-bar still charges. However, I can't really grumble because the place I'm staying is fantastic. £20 a night, huge ensuite room, free beach towel, 100m from the beach and they offer reams of information and advice if you ask! Definitely found myself a bargain!
