I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were comfortable and well-appointed, there were some issues like leaks in the shower and no robes provided. On the bright side, our request for a twin room was accommodated without any explanation. The service, on the other hand, was a disaster with several issues like false information provided. Despite this, we did receive a complimentary drink at the bar. The location is a bit of a mixed bag too; although it looks classy, the hotel is not centrally located, but the nearby bus stop comes in handy. The beachfront setting with Ibiza vibes was cool, though we did feel overpriced at times. Dining was a bit disappointing with limited options, but the top-level club was perfect for unwinding after a long day. Overall, there were some ups and downs during my stay.

I stayed at this luxurious 5-star hotel where we paid a considerable amount for our room. The room was a studio suite on the fourth floor with a decent view, very spacious, clean, and comfy. The staff was young and charming, and the service was generally good. The location, though expected to have better customer service, had its own security guard patrolling the small area. The breakfast selection was good with varied options, and the pool area was well managed. Overall, a high-end experience with a few areas that could be improved.

I stayed at the hotel on the 11th floor and found it to have a strange design but a few constructive observations. The rooms were great overall, but the WC being in an opaque glass cubicle was a surprise, along with dim lighting above the wash basin and small bath towels. It was unexpected not to have an electronic 'do not disturb' sign. Despite these issues, the service was superb, with extremely attentive and friendly staff. The location, near a large shopping center, was the only real letdown due to receiving minimal sunlight in the afternoon and not being well explained on the website. The dining experience had some overpriced options but an excellent breakfast.

The service was a bit of a hit and miss, as the staff were attentive but struggled with English and made some mistakes.
