The hotel was in a perfect location, close to all the main city spots, restaurants, and nightlife everything was within reach. The rooms were modern and comfortable, and the breakfast every morning was consistently great. It was the kind of place that made exploring the city easy while still giving you a solid place to recharge. Definitely a great option if you want to be in the middle of everything.

Over-all, good stay. Wifi was meh, works maybe 20% of the time. Front desk agents have the attitude of "I hope he doesn't talk to me" when approaching the desk. Wouldn't make eye contact unless initiated. Concierge guys were super friendly. The buffet was great, love the morning sardines! Fitness center was a joke, should not be advertised as one

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was clean and comfortable, but check in was impersonal and whenever you walked through the reception no one spoke with you or acknowledged you. They have 2 buildings and nothing saying which building check-in is at, so we like many went to the newer building but were sent to the older tireder building. We were not explained breakfast times or location or about hotel facilities. I would avoid this hotel and pay more to stay nearer the city centre

The free breakfast buffet was good but lack variety. It was the same menu the fives days we're there. Room service was convenient in all hours and reasonable priced. Overall the hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. Rooms and the facility was clean and orderly. Their concierge was also very helpful in tour and excursion choices.
