Members' reviews on LA PISTOCHE
Screaming children were very disturbing. We ordered food several times and each time the waiter returned from the kitchen and said they didn't have that food. At last we ordered french fries, fried chicken and pizza but the food did not taste or look like it was freshly made.
The staff was helpful but and that’s the only thing that can be considered as a plus for this swimming pool.
Swimming pool ehhm ok, but bar? Definitely not. Even there’s a children’s pool, more than 10 child were jumping, splashing and screaming in the main pool with their clothes where the paying visitors should be swimming. There were no adults with them.
There are holes on the ground, instead of fixing it, the manager put some stuff on them (see photos).
Many of the “paying” visitors left the pool after 10 minutes they arrive, we stayed because we ordered food.
Speaking of the food, please keep your expectations low. We’ve ordered 4 times, because the meals we ordered from the menu were not available. And the waitress went to kitchen 5 times to confirm each time. Our final order; pizza was cheese on baguettes. (also check photos)
I’m planning to pay for the food, but I’ll ask for my 40,000 Kip (per person) as we didn’t wanted to swim in the foggy pool, which made us question if the pool meets safety standards.
They agreed to pay the entrance fee back.
