Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with decent amenities and toiletries in place. However, the service provided is subpar with unprofessional and rude staff. The location, though not ideal, is relatively close to the airport and railway station. The dining options are satisfactory with a good buffet selection. Price may not justify the overall experience.
I booked a Sapphire Deluxe room and regret it. The room wasn't checked before I got it, it was noisy, and changing it took ages. The phone to reach the front desk didn't work, and the Wi-Fi was spotty. The rooms were too small for comfort.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were a bit cramped and not as clean as I expected, with small beds that made it challenging to find a comfortable sleeping position. However, they were tidy, neat, and even had a mini bar with a selection of soft drinks and snacks. I'd recommend avoiding the Sapphire Deluxe rooms due to their small size. The service left much to be desired, requiring multiple calls for simple requests, and the staff's responsiveness to complaints was lacking. The location, though safe, was not ideal for tourists and was oddly positioned near a highway. On the upside, the dining experience offered an extraordinary menu with delicious options. In terms of facilities, there were some areas that could use improvement, but overall, it was a decent stay. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel managed to provide a satisfactory experience with its unique highlights.
