Leonardo Hotel Southampton
"Watch if you get the right hotel. Even that it was still the same company they wouldn’t move us to the right Leonardo’s in Southampton. Wouldn’t fix our reservations. Or reimburse our money. We love their facilities. But after this experience we will not be back. Won’t ever stay with them again."
