Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The architecture and design are incredible, the rooms are very clean, and the amenities are perfect. The main downside: I wish the noise levels at night time were better managed better by the use of security or similar - drunken people at night time should have a lid put on them quickly, and likewise children running around wildly and making a ruckus isn't endearing... when the whole goal was for us to get away from this exact situation.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Staff were lovely and accommodating; cleanliness of the room was not great (used fake eyelashes on the counter & an unflushed toilet when we first entered—everyone’s entitled to an off day I suppose, lol!). Cleaning staff very kind and responsive, but our room was right next to their supply closet so at all hours there was quite a bit of noise with the door opening and closing constantly (just bring earplugs and you’ll be fine). Ample towels, wonderfully comfy bed, will come again.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff are nice. The rooms are quite average. This is rather an old property. My experience was not very good because on my first night I noticed bed sheets were quite dirty, as if they were not changed since the last guest. I had to sleep in my outdoor clothes! Next morning I told the reception and asked that they change the sheets but they didn't, and I had to ask them again after I returned to hotel and finally it got changed!
