Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience overall. The rooms were spotless and modern, but some areas were under construction, and cleanliness could be improved, especially near the shower drain. The price was on the higher side without delivering the expected level of service.
The hotel rooms had reasonable electrical plug access for charging devices, which was convenient. Although the rooms were beautiful and clean with a wonderful view over the city, they felt relatively small for the price paid, and cleanliness could have been improved.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was superb, right on the beach and with well-maintained surroundings, but the rooms were underwhelming and not up to the standard I expected from a top-tier hotel. The service was a bit of a hit and miss, with some staff being very friendly while others were not so accommodating. The dining experience was average, offering decent food but with some additional costs that were unexpected. Overall, a stay with some positives and negatives to consider.
The hotel offers basic but clean rooms with fresh towels available even after standard hours, though the view of the roof and air conditioners was terrible despite assurance. The service was a mix of being kind and accommodating with some rude behavior at the front desk. The location provides a splendid beach and pool area, albeit overpriced, and the dining experience was above average but limited and pricey. The facilities were average with some hits and misses.
