A good hotel as a building, location and rooms. Howver, the service was terrible and the restaurants were well below what you would expect. The food was poor. I felt unwell, i asked for 3 bananas, they insisted on charging me for a fruit basket.

The hotel was lovely with excellent options for delicious meals and beautiful rooms. If taking the shuttle to the airport, we would suggest leaving plenty of time to arrive since the shuttle was more than 25 minutes late. We were also surprised to arrive and hear that if we wanted to move into our room early, before afternoon check in, we would need to pay an extra 75$ fee even though the room was ready for occupancy.
