Nice but noisy

Good modern room with friendly staff.

I would never book the Hotel again
Pros:

The location was excellent.

Cons:

We were never told that loud music was going to be played from the night club across the street until 1:00 am every day. Even with the window closed you can hear the music. It’s so loud and no air conditioning.

Pros:

Staff were fantastic, the room was clean, spacious and enough room in the bed to stay well away from her. food was lovely and it’s hard to fault (please see below)

Cons:

Every day (over a four day stay) we were told they were getting an ingredient for a cocktail. Nothing worse when that’s all you want, maybe, just maybe they should take the cocktail off the menu (Hugo spritz)
