"Bittersweet."

We were the only guests in the campsite which was very nice and quiet and clean. The next morning we went to the restaurant for breakfast. (7h15). But the reception and the restaurant then only open at 8h00. We then sat there dry-mouthed on the beautiful, pretty stoep that looked out peacefully and quietly over the lawns and the Gamtoos River. Take out my Laptop and do some admin. Lovely and peaceful. But, there then started a noise from a bunch of people in one of the rooms, and at first we thought it was a group of tourists from the hotel who woke up and started standing closer for breakfast. But no, it wasn't tourists, it was about 15 staff members chirping and "chatting". (7h30) An annoying noise, because even though we couldn't even get coffee, (with about 15 staff members there) it was at least nice to appreciate the early morning silence and the birds. But then we had to listen to the noise instead of the silence. (The marketing brochure does say something about "tranquility".) Finally 8h00 comes and someone comes to ask if we want to order something. Highly annoyed by the noise and the loud music that they also put on at 08h00, we would rather just order coffee. I was going to ask if they would turn the music down? The manager then very kindly reckons that there is a group of people on their way at 10h00 (2 hours later) who have booked out the restaurant. I then told him that it is only in 2 hours, and we would like to have quiet now, since we are the only guests. But I walked away instead, because I didn't feel like more poor reasoning. At least he turned the music down a little. I then went to ask him again to please. to sit even more softly, which he then also did. While we were sitting and drinking coffee, 2 cleaners came and swept the stoep's floor. But again with a chattering noise as they move the metal chairs around and bump their paws against each other. We then call the waiter again and ask him if it is really necessary? The staff have been sitting there laughing and making noise for 45 minutes, but now that it's 8:00 and guests are trying to enjoy their coffee (or breakfast), now they come and once again make a noise while there are guests. He then asked them to come clean later instead. Just then the manager and his young and friendly receptionist also walked by. We then told them about everything, and their defense was that the Hotel reception and restaurant will only open from next week (around the 10th of December) earlier than 8h00. We tried to explain to them that some guests want to eat earlier than 8h00 so that they can get in the way earlier. But they don't seem to understand anything we're trying to tell them. In their courtesy and their friendliness, they defended that "these are the hotel's rules".
