Great stay at Solana
Had a great stay at Solana. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was big, beautiful, and clean. The only downside was that the WiFi was pretty terrible in my room — poor connection and really slow.

The property has a very small rooftop pool and you have to recycle your pool towels or for a few they will change. I was on the 3 rd floor and there were 2 cockroaches in the room. The location is very good, close to restaurants and shopping, but there are better places to stay for the money.

Have stayed many times over the years. Friendly Staff Excellent Breakfast Very Clean Standard Room Great Value For Money. Only problem for myself this time was that the corridors to your rooms are very noisy due to tiled floors and not enough soft furnishings to dampen down the sound. Also the music around the pool area (Top Deck) is awful it needs to be addressed.

I stayed here for almost a week and it was alright. I would’ve really appreciated being made aware that there were renovations/work going on, constantly. These started as early as 7:30. The fire alarm even went off once. That should be something you tell residents before or during their check in. Or as there were lots of those renovations going on right outside our door (2312) maybe close the whole floor so residents aren’t disturbed. The lift situation was quite confusing at the beginning we had to take a life down then walk quite a while then get another lift up, it wasn’t straightforward. The cleaners would also reuse bedding and towels but just re fold them as if they were new/re make the bed but flip the covers. Overall the room was nice. Our view wasn’t the best, the food was great and the staff were really nice

Holiday stay
A couple of issues, parking was not available at hotel despite being advised and emailing to book due to building work. This was inconvenient as on street parking 400m away. They did offer use of alternative hotel parking but this was also over 5 minutes away. Room booked was a double but was simply 2 singles pushed together with separate bedding so not comfortable as a couple.
