The location was very nice. I enjoyed the breakfast choice and the rooftop area had a splash pool. All staff was cute and provided great service to me.
The room layout felt awkward. The bathroom had a stopper in front the toilet. This was a trip hazard. the shower glass was inadequate and allowed water to run out on the bathroom floor.
