were you given a choice?

sheraton not six senses or evason?

i presume zero cost.
No choice. Apparently Six Senses was full (of Aman guests!) last night and when I mentioned I had already booked a night there Aman tried to get me in earlier so I may still get a chance to stay at Amanoi. Though I'm not optimistic.
Back-up generator didn't work. No water Kage, not no hot water. No power means no pump for water. Engineer was flying in last night from SGN. Something about the Government involvement. Maybe it's not Aman's transformer but the government's.
I didn't pay for Sheraton but it was not the time to discuss what I'll be charged as Patrick (he's in Sales) had his hands full especially since more guests will be arriving!
