"We stayed for 4 nights and upgraded to a club king room with sea view which was very nice snd worth it. The property is very well maintained and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The room itself was beautiful. I would only say that the bed is more on the firm side and given our personal preference is a bit softer this would be the only negative. Also if you are a very light sleeper, note you can sometimes hear motorcycles from the main street below even from the 11th floor which the hotel cannot control however the overall comfort and sea view compensated for this. Buffet breakfast was delicious and access to the club suite was convenient since you can grab coffee, refreshments and snacks 24 hours, plus appetizers and alcoholic beverages from 5-7pm. I would definitely stay here again."

"This hotel is in the middle of a largely residential area but the rest of the island is easily accessible via Uber/Bolt taxis at very reasonable prices. We only had breakfast at the hotel which was very good with a full choice available. It is worthwhile walking around the districts adjoining the property where there are several villages wth small bars and restaurants . We found the local people to be very friendly. Many of the buildings are very historic and beautiful."
