comfortable bed indoor pool amazing jacuzzi
My room had the bonus of a terrace! The bed was very comfortable. The indoor swimming pool and jacuzzi were amazing, a pure treat.
The ceilings are low. The toilet seat was not fitted well. It sat unevenly.

breakfast buffet nice staff great location slow security stained carpets missed cleaning
i really liked how the breakfast buffet had many options. the staff at the breakfast area were very nice and always offered coffee. the location was great because i could easily walk to many shops.
the security check to enter the hotel was slow. i had to put my small bag through the scanner each time, that was annoying. also, the carpets in the hallway had many stains and looked dirty. the housekeeping didnt clean my room one day.

spacious room separate sinks turkish pastries tedious security stained carpets missed cleaning
i really loved how spacious my beautiful room city view was. the bathroom was big, it had two separate sinks and a rainfall shower which i thought it was so cool. the breakfast buffet had lots of options, i specially liked the fresh fruit selection and the turkish pastries, so yummy.
the security checks to enter the hotel every time felt too much. i mean, putting my small bag through the scanner was a little too much, right? also, the carpets really needed cleaning, i saw some big stains, it was not the best impression. plus, the housekeeping only cleaned my room on the first night, after that nothing, that was disappointing.
