Room was fine other than no bathroom outlets other than for razor. Breakfast was in different areas from our friends and wouldn’t allow us to eat together. Slow service at bar and pool. Always a line at coffee machines and could use drip coffee to reduce wait.

Hotel and staff were wonderful the rooftop pool and restaurant was fantastic and don’t miss the wonderful breakfast there are good restaurants in walking distance though the area is what you would expect in a city center I did not venture out at night. Front desk was so helpful after we learned of a cab strike happening the day we were leaving, hotel staff secured us reliable transportation to the airport I highly recommend this hotel for comfort rooftop pool and restaurant

staff was friendly and attentive at both the bar, pool and restaurant area. Food and drinks good (although they didn't remove a drink that they said they would remove). Their rooms were just average and a bit small-we were there on our honeymoon, so we we hoping for a nicer upgrade of some sort or something, but that didn't happen. One thing I didn't like at all was the showers. They were awkwardly placed and difficult to use and the hot water took a while to warm up. I also didn't love how no toilet paper was to be placed in the toilet. Other than that, this wasn't a bad place at all. Staff was super attentive, friendly and rather quick too. By the way, the hue of the pool is darker than in the pictures, so if you are a lap swimmer like me, it's more difficult to see other swimmers/divers under the water. I had a little collision with someone, which was due to low visibility under water. Also, we were under the impression that there would be a free breakfast included, however that didn't happen idk why. I heard another hotel staffer tell some other guests that breakfast is complementary.

This hotels has a plumbing problem. Hard to fix being above the train and a massive fountain. Our room smelled like a toilet bowl. After complaining, and requesting a refund to leave, we were told there were no more rooms, but then miraculously were switched to a different room. This room smelled like bleach and the drain was clogged. Backed up water began to rise in the bathroom. We complained again and were refused a refund and were offered to move rooms YET again. We were offended, were not met with respect and hospitality and how uncomfortable we were. We will never stay here again and will never recommend this hotel. Also, we were warned by multiple taxi drivers that the area is known for many people being on hard drugs. Not good for walking. We also were followed to the hotel and only crossed the street from the bar across the street. Security was great at diverting the man, but overall a terrible, costly, and uncomfortable experience.
