Spa bath didn't work nor did the lights so it was a dark non bubbly bath. In the gym, the bike didn't work - pedal broken and the weights machine was also broken, I would definately not call it WORLD CLASS! :P I booked the hotel becuase of the gym so was quite upset about that.

I wasn’t happy with this property. For the price that we’ve paid was much more expensive than what I expected. The air conditioner was not working. The phone in the room was broken. The bathroom are old and the amenities are not updated. I will not go back again.
