Seaview Hotel,
Walton-on-Sea

23rd July

Dear Emily,
How are you? I hope you’re well. I’m writing to you to tell you about my holiday. It’s a total disaster!

The plane was ten hours late and we got here at 4 o’clock on Sunday morning! The next day, I went to the beach for a swim. However, it’s miles from the hotel and it’s crowded. The sea is freezing and it’s polluted – there’s a chemical factory next to the beach!

The hotel is terrible, too. In the brochure, it said all the rooms had excellent views of the sea – from my room, all I can see is the hotel car park! The swimming pool was also lovely in the brochure – but it’s very small and full of noisy children.

My room is terrible. It’s dirty and this morning, I found an enormous cockroach in the shower! And there is a noisy family next to me.

I’m eating a sandwich in my room at the moment because the waiters in the restaurants are rude and unfriendly. The food is terrible. Yesterday, there was a fly in my salad – it was disguting!!

Well, it’s time to for bed. I’d like a shower but, of course, there’s no hot water tonight. And I can’t watch a film because the television doesn’t work.

I can’t wait to go home! See you soon!
