8/10 Very good! (1,004 reviews)
"It's ok but definitely not worth the $200 per night. The king room was rather small, windowless and the king bed was just 2 singles pushed together so you can't acrually sleep in the middle. Reasonably clean. Not sound proof at all against other noisy guests and the bar downstairs gets quite busy ..."

"Comfortable, well located and well equipped. The pool deck was sparsely equipped and seemed neglected. The sliding door onto our balcony was VERY heavy and required 2 hands to pull it open, so maintenance could be improved."
