Lovely hotel unfortunately we only booked it as it had a roof top pool On the first day went up to pool and it was empty! Asked receptionist and was told it was having maintenance done so a huge disappointment The bar prices are double that of all the other bars and restaurants we visited on our three day trip No view from the room would have liked a street view Otherwise staff very friendly and bed comfortable

Disappointed

I was given an accessible room which was not what I had booked. I refused this room and was given another. It was an adjoining room and I could hear the people next door and I am sure they could hear me. I think when you are a solo traveller you are given the worst rooms.

Nice hotel - upscale with great location. Great security, very helpful staff. Breakfast buffet was very lovely as well as rooftop bar and restaurant. Downside was that it was noisy. They had a banquet in the hotel and we could hear percussive music that didn't stop until 12:30 am. Also there was a dangerous doorstop in our bathroom with sharp jagged edges.
