Reviews and Ratings
The hotel provided a neat and clean room, albeit the bed configuration was not ideal. The spacious room came with excellent power showers, making the stay comfortable. Service was accommodating and generous, though some inattention was noted. The location was perfect for a quick transfer to Wilson Airport but was hindered by a dusty, deserted area. Dining was enjoyable but a bit pricey. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvements.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were super comfortable, very clean, and exceeded my expectations. The service was exceptional, especially from Ruth at Reception, who went above and beyond to assist us. The location was convenient for our morning flight from Wilson Airport. The dining options were limited and a bit pricey, but the fresh fruits were delightful.
The hotel rooms were spacious and really neat, but tired and dated, not as new and modern as the pictures suggest. Despite some noise from the reception and Friday jazz night, the experience was decent. The bed was uncomfortable being two beds put together.
The hotel pictures were a bit misleading as the rooms were tired and dated, not as modern as expected. However, the service, especially from Ruth at Reception, was exceptional. The location was not ideal due to construction nearby, but it was convenient for accessing malls. Dining options were limited, leading me to explore nearby coffee shops for better choices.
The hotel is misleading with tired and dated rooms, not as modern as the pictures show, but the pool access in a bathrobe is a discreet plus. The service is a mixed bag with some very helpful staff like Ruth at Reception, but inattentive overall. The location is not ideal, with construction nearby, but it's quite good for shopping. The dining options are limited and overpriced, leading me to go elsewhere for meals.
The hotel rooms were nice and comfortable but the noise from the reception and the restaurant was quite bothersome, especially during the jazz night on Fridays. The staff were terrific, welcoming, and helpful. The location was perfect for quick access to nearby malls but could use some improvement for families with kids. The dining options were quite tasty with some variety.
