Very noisy at night, you may be better off with a room far from the pool and the night river area. The staff is very confused about hours of operations and more than once they told a restaurant or bars were closed when they actually weren't. The restaurant Date and Night have Ramadan night but does not specify that they start at 800pm for guests and 600pm for locals. We sat at the restaurant at 600pm because no one was at the entrance and within few minutes the manager came and yelled at us and told us we were not supposed to be there. It was a very unpleasant experience, and I would not stay again in this hotel because of how rude their employees can be.
