The hotel rooms are nice, modern, and have Netflix, which is amazing for a hotel in the 21st century. They came with all the expected amenities, and the bathroom supplies included a toothbrush kit, which was a nice touch. The amazingly powerful rainfall shower was a great addition. The room was a good size with all the facilities needed, even though I had to adjust the in-room air conditioner to 26°C. However, being close to a club meant it was a bit noisy at night.

The location of the hotel is perfect, right in the heart of the city center, close to all the bars, activities, and shopping malls. However, the proximity to a loud club made it hard to get a good night's sleep.

The dining experience was a bit overpriced at £32.99 per person, but the food selection was extensive. The noise from below during breakfast was disruptive.

The hotel looks good initially but seems to have been done on a budget. It was clean and in a good location, but when the clubs emptied at 3 am, it could get loud. Overall, a decent choice for a quiet room.

The hotel is conveniently located near the city center with a rooftop bar offering a nice view. However, the loud music from a nearby bar until 3 am can be bothersome.

7.0/10

The hotel rooms were modern and comfortable and had everything I needed, but there were small issues like missing slippers and gowns and the bed needed fixing. Despite that, the room had a nice seating area, and the shower was good. The hotel was in a central location where you can feel the buzz of the city centre, but it might not be the best choice if you are looking for a quiet place to rest.
