Service was poor, felt like customers were a hindrance to the hotel. Bar eas closed for a private party, which was full
Cons:

It seems I book a level of room repeatably, we end up in very different rooms.

Previously I booked the same room type and had a separate private balcony, this time it was a communal balcony on the first floor next to the restaurant balcony, which they started jet washing at 7:30.
