I had a wonderful experience at this hotel! The rooftop bar offered breathtaking views, especially at sunset, providing the perfect backdrop for evening drinks. While the breakfast was excellent with a variety of options, I found the dinner buffet to be disappointing in terms of food quality and selection. The staff was incredibly attentive and went out of their way to assist with my needs, making my stay even more enjoyable.

I had an enjoyable stay at the hotel with a few notable highlights and some drawbacks. The spa services were excellent and provided a relaxing retreat during our trip. The dining experience, especially breakfast, didn't quite meet my expectations. The views from the rooftop bar were stunning and definitely worth a visit. Overall, the experience was pleasant, but improvements could be made in dining and service efficiency.
