Functional. Nothing fancy. But practical. Not on the waterfront. But the Marina is literally few minutes away. Lot of dining options. Athenia was very helpful at the front desk.

The Honeymoon Suite (same price as other rooms) is absolutely beautiful - rounded ceiling, ample space, private balcony, and 180 windows. The bed was huge and comfortable. Staff was highly attentive and provided many recommendations throughout. Would highly recommend!

The staff was horrible not friendly at all extremely expensive for a hotel that does not give 5 star experience. Rooms are outdated. Bathroom is ridiculously small. Tv reception was bad, wifi reception was bad. Breakfast , was the same breakfast everyday. For 200 a day you expect better.

Great location with a unique look and feel. The rooms are just okay, but the service was incredibly friendly and the breakfast was nice. It’s a place you’ll never forget just because if it’s unique vibe.
