Absolutely lovely hotel, but not for getting a good night's sleep. Even on a Monday night, the extremely loud local music/ club venue raged until 2am. Even though the hotel provided earplugs. It doesn't help.

This is a very nice facility, however beware of the music on the weekends from the bar across the street. The staff will assist you but you must distract them from their phones or computers first. Also be prepared to have your credit card automatically charged for a tip. You will see the charge and then you complete an automatic checkout that will not process without accepting

The property itself is gorgeous & my room is aesthetically so cool! I didn't mind the late night DJ because he was very good but the surrounding area overall was incredibly loud until super late (2-3am). I am also absolutely covered in mosquito bites from dining here. The pool offers no privacy and is tiny. The location is really convenient though & this place has great style.
