Pros:

You could stay in the hotel for multiple days and have a unique experience each day. The staff was amazing

Cons:

I would have preferred if the area was more walkable or centralized in the Westlands. But it was just a ride from wherever you want to go

Had a nice time. I would stay here again.
Pros:

Breakfast was great. The bed was comfortable.

Not five star
Pros:

Nice breakfast. Lovely entrance and interior. Cool rooftop bar.

Cons:

Cramped rooms. Small bathrooms. No storage for personal items. Electronics in room do not work properly. Cleaning staff slow to clean. Left clean light on for over 4 hours on teo separate days and no one came to clean. Pool is small. Maybe good for a one night stay only.
