A great new hotel that oozes effortless cool, in a prime location. It feels secluded from the outside world like a mini resort, and the facilities are great.
The rooms are nicely decorated in a modern style, but are also comfortable places to spend a few hours.
There were three annoyances that let this property down:
1. The pool is freezing! The air was a nearly constant 30 degrees during our stay, yet the pool was uncomfortably cold so that no-one stayed in it for more than 5 mins.
2. The main door to our room (301) let in loads of noise. This was not helped by the fact that the cleaning closet was outside our door and the cleaners stood around talking loudly from around 8:30 in the morning.
3. The cleaners were a real mixed bag - the room was never unclean, but quite often our mini bar or tea/coffee supplies were not restocked and our glasses were not cleaned/replaced. Additionally, there was no price list for either the mini bar or room service, which really put us off using them. Finally, because we had the audacity to not leave our room at 09:00 each day (instead often leaving between 10:30-11:30) we were asked multiple times on separate days by a cleaner when we were planning to go or if we didn’t want cleaning that day. It really made us feel like we were misbehaving in some way…
Overall, this is a great place that I would stay at again, but there are some things to fix. Shoutout to Sophia and Joanna for the pool service!
