Do not stay in this hotel!!!
Staff does not speak English. Fitness room did not have towels and water. Even worse the ac was not work in there what made impossible to workout with an inside temperature of 100F. I need to change rooms as my first one had short circuit. I paid for executive room and got this condition.

Despite being in a nice location it’s not trivial to reach the beach in front of the hotel. The combination of red lights and underground pedestrian passage is not close to the hotel. Breakfast is very good and the hotel as well as rooms are quite clean. The rooms are a bit dated and are showing their age, including on the Executive Floor.

We liked the accessibility to shopping and transportation. However, very disappointed with the following: Only 1 bath towel for 2 occupants. No wash cloths provided. No shower gel provided but plenty of shampoo. Electric kettle, cups and saucers, but no tea bags or coffee, no creamers or sugars. No listing in the room of numbers for restaurant or front desk. No menu for restaurant. No listing of local attractions/eateries/malls. NO IRON OR IRON BOARD! We had to BORROW and were admonished to return it in 40 MINUTES!!
