convenient locationample seatingadequate roomsuncomfortable bed
i found the location really convenient since everything was nearby shops were just a minute away and i was close to clubs and bars i had easy access to everything i needed. the pool area was good. i was with a group of five and two rooms were adequate.
the bed was not comfortable it felt really hard. the pillow also was quite hard which did affect my sleep. i think the hotel could improve comfort.
