The staff were great. I love this area - close to all the shops, restaurants and night life. The property/rooms could use some updates. The beds were not the comfiest but also not a deal breaker given the cleanliness, great service and views here.

We loved staying here in the Jr Suite. As an LGBT couple, we felt welcome. Amazing view, perfect room, and excellent service. Loved the Nespresso in the room and the nightly turn-down! This was our second time here and definitely will be back! We appreciated access to the adult pool. The location is amazing and everything is safe and secure.
