Loved how new and fresh everything was. Bed was super comfortable. Lots of dining options right next door with a 10% off discount if you’re staying at the hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Reception area and staff were nice. Good location in relation to being able to walk to dinner but you need to exit the hotel and walk in an unconverted area to the club and the pool and gym are a long distance from the hotel (on the other side of the club).

My second stay at this apartment in the Harmony Suite. The staff at reception are so lovely and helpful, and a bonus is the amazing gym and pool you can use during the stay. No food room service but the club is conveniently right next door.
