We will provide more details next month in the next update. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial Black, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">To those people who prefer not to pay for a sunbed, and use their own down at the pool, please make sure you take them back to your apartment when you leave the pool for the day, you cant leave them at the pool ready for the next time you use it, the other Sunday I removed 8 beds, 2 folding chairs, lots of floats and a large inflatable. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial Black, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Emergency night \/ Disturbance.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial Black, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Starts 11pm till 7am, you can call them on 617647928 ( new number).
