Cleanliness
1
Mixed sentiment: several reviewers called rooms very clean, but multiple comments report shower drains not working and a flooded bathroom, indicating cleanliness/maintenance issues.
Service
1
Generally positive: multiple mentions of amazing, helpful and supportive staff; however one report of unprofessional behaviour at check-in tempers this.
Location
1
Mixed: useful location for some guests but repeatedly noted as noisy and on a major traffic junction.
Room Quality
1
Mostly positive room comments (clean, large rooms, good views) but issues with noisy AC, unfinished elements and drainage problems affect quality.
Amenities
1
Negative: roof deck and pool frequently unavailable or unfinished, no pool towels reported, parts of building lack working AC; construction impacts amenity availability.
Value for Money
1
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Food and Beverage
1
Negative: advertised food items unavailable, food not suitable for some guests, and breakfast described as mediocre.
Overall Experience
1
Mixed but ultimately positive-forward: guests praised staff and rooms and several indicated they'd return once construction/finishing is complete, despite significant operational shortcomings.

We will stay again when it’s completed
Pros:

Location for what we needed was amazing. Staff were amazing also

Cons:

It’s not finished. Lots of work going on around the entire building. Roof deck not finished so no access. Pool was not available. Fire panels with lots of alarms is worrying. Shower drain was not working so bathroom flooded

A strange hotel as it starts on the 2nd floor but the rooms were good and staff were nice.
Pros:

Clean rooms and nice staff.

Cons:

This is a new hotel and probably not ready to open. Some of the things you see like inside lifts were not finished and the food for a westerner is not a good choice. The food used in advertising was not available. But overall I was happy.
