The rooms were clean and surprisingly spacious, with a large, comfortable bed and a bathroom experience that felt refreshingly novel. Our particular room was windowless, but thoughtfully arranged for comfort. Breakfast was well executed, offering a generous buffet with plenty of appealing options. The rooftop pool, while on the smaller side, provided a pleasant retreat, complemented by a bar that offered a refreshing vantage point over the city below.

The hotel itself is a little old and tired but it goes with the city! The bar on the roof was always out of wine but the other bar which is just one floor below always had wine but they never would take a bottle or two up which I didn’t understand. Hotel in a great location, didn’t matter which way you walked when you came out of the hotel all directions had something to offer.

This was definitely not a 4 star hotel as listed, i thhink it was a 3 star.. However room was spotless and hotel very clean, staff were very pleasant There was no business centre to print in. The pool was a disappointment as it was currently boarded up at one side and access was up a rickety fire escape and tiles were missing around the pool terrace. Limited sunchairs and no umbrellas but the pool itself was a welcome relief in the heat. we were not advised in advance of the pool area being refurbished and half the terrace closed. Breakfast was OK, nothing outstanding. Wifi and aircon in room were good and overall a pleasant stay.
