Very modern property with many amenities for a comfortable stay. There have been more than 3 times where the electricity went out for a short time. With respect to A/C it is centralized, therefore not providing the customer with an option to increase or decrease the temperature. Beside these nuisance I had a wonderful stay short of five star service. I’ll visit again !

The hotel itself is beautiful but the food could not be any worse. I actually got food poisoning on the second day of this trip because of how bad it was. If you are cultured at all, you will not enjoy the food. The room was nice, views were nice, but food is too important. After day 2, I just stopped eating. I heard it’s still new so hopefully they can resolve this.
