"This is a 5 star hotel with a couple of twists it is stuck on the top of a steep hill, and has 14 floors so when you go down for breakfast at $42 a head you would not expect to have to queue for up to 10 minutes to get a cup of coffee from the only out of date coffee machine????? and the room service meal i got was shocking was not hot and was basicly rubbish.
