This hotel has potential but lacks investment
The hotel turned out to not be what was advertised at time of booking. The pool, spa and gym area is rundown, and clearly needs investment. If this had been rectified prior to my arrival then I would be giving this hotel a 5 star review.
Nicholas, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

Property was nice. Room was nice and clean. Staff was rude and i booked this Property only for the swimming pool. It was closed and no body give us update or notice. They didn't compensate. Terrible experience. I could have booked same kind of rrom somewhere else with half price that i paid them. Apart from that breakfast was good. Cleanliness was good

Some of the reception staff could be more hospitable while other staff were helpful. Cleaning lady on floor 6 was probably the best ive experienced, amazing attention to detail. Lovely, cozy swimming pool area with very helpful staff. Great location, easy to get around, great stay.

Ali, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Pretty rundown and worn hotel. Shower etc. was moldy, bed covers had cigarette burns, windows in none of our 3 windows could shut tight, so the noise was really bothersome. Highlights were the pretty helpful frontdesk staff who got us a good price for a transfer cab, and the rooftop terrace was perfect for drinks etc.
