Called the hotel 5 times prior to arrival and no one answered. Upon arrival, 10 minute wait to check in. There were 3 people at the front desk. Great location, shame about the customer service upon arrival.

8/10 Very good

The most comfortable quality bedding I've ever experienced. Had an amazing rest and was a stunning hotel with premium amenities. Every interaction with concierge, and house keeping hotel staff was a let down with most of them not able to even manage a smile, some were sarcastic and others were condescending with a horrible attitude. The ladies working the in room dining were lovely and polite. I recommend the hotel but the guest service requires improvement.

6/10 Good

The toilet door handle was broken, there was a broken glass in the draw, and the curtains didn’t quite block out the sun enough. The air conditioning, although set to 18 degrees, didnt really work and just blew air. The stay was nice the location lovely, and the staff were great. The facilities and the room weren’t quite up to par this time.
