A much-needed escape from routine, with a "little" disappointment along the way.
Pros:

The location is excellent and the 24-hour reception is a definite plus.

Cons:

Unfortunately, I didn't have a great experience with the room, especially considering the price.

The main issue was not that things went wrong — they do. It was how the hotel dealt with them.

The inside door lock, one electrical socket and the wall fan were not working. I reported each of them to reception.

The response to the door lock was particularly surprising. I was expected to feel safe simply because the receptionist said so — following by that he was there, there were cameras, and only the manager had a key card to enter the rooms. I was eventually told that the inside locks didn't work in any of the rooms.

I prefer an actual working lock rather than a “trust me, you're safe” arrangement. 😏

When I raised it further, management explained that the receptionist was new and that I should try harder with the lock. So apparently, the lock wasn't the problem. My technique was. 😏

There was also a strange amount of passing responsibility around — who had to call the manager, what the receptionist had to do, what I had to ask for. I was the guest reporting a faulty room, not the person running the internal staff procedure.

The room itself was quite crowded, the wardrobe was difficult to access because of bulky items, and there was an easy-to-miss step between the room and bathroom, the room became hot without the wall fan, and opening the windows brought constant outside noise. The mattress was also very uncomfortable. None of these individually would necessarily make me write a review.

Things go wrong. I can accept that. What I cannot accept is that THEIR TOLERANCE for FAULTS became something I WAS EXPECTED TO TOLERATE too.

I paid for a room to rest and relax. I expect the basics to work — and when they don't, I expect them to be treated as problems, not as something I simply need to tolerate.

Will I stay there again? Maybe. The location is excellent and the 24-hour reception is a definite plus.

Don't stay
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The floor was not clean. I had to clean the bathroom.
Even though it states there is a lift to upper floors, we were in the penthouse and had to walk up 20 stairs. Not a problem if you can walk up them.
The bar was not open and food was not available. If you wanted anything you had to go next door even then they didn't serve breakfast.
The penthouse didn't have any complimentary bottles of water.
The staff on reception were nice but English wasn't their first language so communication was poor.
If we had known this we definitely wouldn't have paid for the penthouse or even stayed there.

Dissapointing Hotel
Pros:

The location only. Sea view

Cons:

1. Upon arrival the lady (who I found out later was the landlady), did not know anytjing about my stay or for how long. She checked me in for two days only and I booked for 6 days.. She gave us a key and when we went to the room.. The key didn't open the door. So we needed to go down again to sort it out. She didn't know so she said to come back later.
2. Cleanliness of the room. A piece of biscuit was under the bed since I checked in. I noticed it there hoping it oculd be cleaned. Nothing changed. Rug full of dust. Shower. Moldy. Shower faucett could be hardly work.
3. Dust under the bed.
4. My room was made up once and they didn't remove the bins. I requested to the staff but hskp never came to remove bins.
5. I couldn't sleep any more there among djst and dorty linen so. I decided to leave the place before my original date.
