9.4/10 Exceptional! (173 reviews)

There were so many great things about this property it's hard to count them all. Unfortunately, the extremely noise level kept us from getting a good quality of sleep both nights. The street noise is bad but the MANY doors open and shutting thoughout the property was the worst. Not just guest rooms but many doors that just separate areas requiring door key (pool (s), breakfast area, evening drink reception area and various other areas of the complex ) slamming to lock. VERY DISTRUPTIVE !
