The hotel itself is nice, with beautiful views of the canal and a beachfront setting.
When I checked in, they upgraded me and upon going to my room, there was a strongcigarette smell (in a non-smoking room). The housekeeping tried cleaning up the room with an air freshener but the smell persisted and I wanted a change so they upgraded me again, a double upgrade!(As they had no rooms of the same category left)
The double upgraded room was on a higher floor with a seperate reading room and lounge like area with televisions and a common bar for the floor! The room itself was expansive with nice flooring, floor to ceiling glass windows, hall with a tv set etc. Very well appointed.
The food options were limited (for vegetarians) and the quality was average (again for vegetarians, I dined at the middle eastern/Mediterranean restaurant and the hummus, spring rolls, bread and ice creams were just average). The meat eaters seemed to be enjoying their food more, so I guess its only the veg options that were limited. Overall a good property but I didn't really have time to use the swimming pool or other amenities as I was on a short 2 day business trip.
