celebrating our engagement

Location: Nice beaches and lovely grounds
Ordered a double bed thru ebookers and paid for it and got given two single beds and ended up on the floor twice as celebrating our engagement and want to cuddle. No double beds on site we were told. No available water fountains anywhere even at dinner and had to order a bottle which arrives without a lid and expect it is just tap water.
