Pros:

The free breakfast was a big plus, the spread was adequate and scrumptious. Coffee machine was free but coffee made by barista you have to pay for, which we did not mind, the coffee machine was perfect for us. There were selection of hot food, fruits, granola/yoghurt and breads, which was adequate for us for a free breakfast. Even though there was a a big group party, we did not feel there was not enough food to go around or it cramped.

Bed was comfortable, space was big and it did feel luxurious. Check in & out were a breeze too.

We had dinner at Bella and enjoyed it too.

Cons:

The A/C is not in the room but centralised in the whole building i think, it did get quite hot in the evening even after maxing the 'fan' - it was the only thing we can adjust with the temp. It did become an uncomfortable sleep.

There was nothing else in the property to do, no swimming pool or other facilities, so this is only good if you're after a staycation.
