Ananda Lanta Resort

We were booked in for 4 nights and left after the 1st night. A display on bed as a congratulations for my Husband was full of ants from the flowers crawling on the bed. This is the worst place I have stayed ever. Bathroom was smelly and thick of mould in the grout and no hot water. After going to reception about the hot water a technician came to room and within seconds this was fixed, some hidden box up in the wardrobe rectified this, I suspect a cost saving exercise by the hotel to not provide hot water. Dead fly stuck on net curtain. The bed was like a slab of concrete with 2 joined together and 2 separate quilts. The list of facilities on the hotel's website is incorrect and this is disingenuous. One of a number of examples is that a hotel restaurant was advertised but this was closed with a padlock on the doors. This hotel does not serve any food. The pool was clean but the surrounding area around the pool was rough pebble dash, with only 12 sunlongers, people were lying on the concrete on a towel. I asked reception if there were more sun loungers available and was told no that was all they had. There was an electrical 'do not disturb' system which would display outside, none of these in any rooms were in operation and no alternative system was in use, such as a simple door hanger, to avoid being disturbed by housekeeping. We made a sign and stuck it on the door and were still knocked on to move to an upgraded room after we complained, this room was slightly cleaner but smaller than our room with a view of the hotel's reception canopy. We did not move rooms. They said they would do a clean on our room but upon return, the towels were still hanging as we left them; these had not been replaced. The dead fly remained on the curtain and brown stains up wall were still there. There were screw holes above the bed from where we presume would have been a smoke and carbon monoxide detector. How this place can call itself a hotel is very questionable.
