Pool free, I believe
I think wifi is free too but there are plenty of places that do have it.
Helmets are not compulsory for adults although recomended.
There are a number of places who will do your skis but think you will have to get them done on the sunday morning. There is a place that I used last season next to the hire shop by the Gondola. Can't remember how much and there may be better places than that.
£10 will go a fair way but it depends on what you want and how much you eat and ...

re: Rila Hotel and resort questions
The water is OK to drink for most and fine for cleaning your teeth - however it can cause a dickkie tummy due to the minerals. Not worth getting sick on holiday so I would recommend bottled.Pete

)re: Rila Hotel and resort questions
Thanks Pete, thanks EMJAY, thanks Sune. Much appreciated.I am sure we will meet you all. Have my wife and son(17) and daughter(14) in tow. I will have a hat with red hair on. If you see me, come and say hello. Hat looks like this(http://www.slamw.plus.com/passo/images/img_9393.jpg)
