My experience at this hotel was quite disappointing. We had booked a double bed but ended up with two single beds and were told that a double was not available. Additionally, I encountered serious issues like a cockroach in the bathroom, a persistent sewage smell, and no hot water on two occasions. The steep layout of the hotel made it difficult for my partner, who has walking difficulties. Overall, I believe there are better options at a similar price point.

I had a lot of challenges during my stay at this hotel. The initial room mix-up was frustrating, and the lack of communication regarding the power outage really affected my experience. However, I appreciated the spaciousness of the room once I got the right one and the overall layout of the hotel was interesting. Still, the service left much to be desired.

My stay was incredibly disappointing at this supposed top-class hotel. The check-in process was frustrating, starting with the wrong room assignment and a lack of communication about a scheduled power outage. The rooms themselves were hot and uncomfortable. While there were some amenities, they couldn't make up for the numerous issues, including poor service and cleanliness problems. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.

My stay was quite disappointing overall. Initially, the room allocated to us was not what we had booked, and the service from the staff was frustrating. The room had a significant issue with air conditioning, making it uncomfortable, especially given the scheduled power outage. Not all staff seemed equipped to handle requests, which detracted from the experience. However, I appreciated that they did eventually correct the room situation and arranged for us to get the right accommodation.

My experience at this hotel was disappointing, with several frustrating issues that overshadowed the positives. While the view from the property was stunning, the service and room conditions left much to be desired. The staff seemed untrained and unresponsive, and my issues with the room were not addressed adequately. The amenities did not meet the expectations set by the resort classification, and although the food was acceptable, it wasn't worth the price. Overall, I would recommend looking elsewhere for a more enjoyable stay.
