Pros:

The staff are great and I have no issues with them at all. But the hotel itself is outdated; it’s clear the owners aren't investing in it. At this price point, the value just isn't there. When you're paying $300 a night, you shouldn't have to deal with a lack of basic amenities like a hairdryer or even a complimentary bottle of water. It’s a $150 hotel at best. You can find far better options for the same money.

Pros:

Расположение, чистота в номере

Cons:

При бронировании я выбирала завтрак включен, однако не получила по факту. Джентльмен почтенного возраста на ресепшн был не очень любезен.

Disappointing for a Diamond Elite member. Rooms are quite below the price value with no upgrade
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Check-in was disappointing. Staff did not recognise my Diamond status and insisted I had Gold status and did not want to give me a free breakfast. Initially, I was given a very stinky standard room with no upgrade. I complained, and another staff member gave me another room. It was still a standard room with no upgrade.
At checkout, I noticed that my credit card for the refund was changed to another one. It took about one hour to fix this issue.
