Tripadvisor, January 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

Good location but boy - the customer service when I checked in, noise level between the rooms and discomfort of the beds just made my experience here the worst unfortunately.

Overall it was not worth the money spent.

Google, December 2025, rated 3/5 by this guest

The hotel clearly caters to locals coming in to hang in their lobby like it’s some coffee bar and those coming to go to their “exclusive” roof top bar and doesn’t prioritize their actual guests paying outrageous nightly rates.

Add to that a portable ac that's like being in a wind tunnel and an endless rave from the pool party across the street and you'll be glad to be on your way back to the airport.
