IT WAS frustrating, especially during peak hours. The room's climate control was also a problem. I could not adjust the temperature below 21 degrees Celsius. This made the room uncomfortably warm at night. The limited TV options were also noticeable.

the hotel is in a great location. the room service was prompt and efficient. i had a luxury king room sea view that had a comfortable bed and nice amenities (i slept really well).
I noticed one was out of service. the air conditioning had some issues, and there were times it did not seem to work properly. there were small led lights on some of the sockets (they were a distraction at night).
