Lovely staff , beautiful hotel, lovely pool area. However there are currently apartments under construction on the rock above the swimming pool and the noise from the two huge cranes is constant . However the cranes noise aside, we managed to have a lovely stay and the pool bar and staff were helpful and so friendly.

This hotel was located on the top of the hill. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The room was beautiful with an amazing view. There isn't much around but the lift to the top of the rock was in walking distance. You could also walk to the downtown restaurants. Walking back is all uphill and taxis are hard to find. It is doable though.

Nice hotel. Had the Junior Suite. Not great front desk communication. Restaurant and bar close too early, in my opinion given the location. Room needs a retrofit for the AC unit. The AC is quiet noisy. Nice room but the terrace is not cleaned. Be prepared when crossing the street. Thankfully hotel has safety signage around the property.

The receptionists are good and friendly. The space of the room is good and well layout. Having problem with TV. The kettle inside was rusty. The tea pot was not cleaned after being used. The pillows were too hard and uncomfortable. The air conditioning unit blew out some dirts. We had to turn it off and open the window and balcony door instead.
