Pros. The lady at the front desk was very nice to upgrade us to a 2nd level nicer room because we were on our honeymoon. The live music was really good. The place was always clean, and the cleaners did a good job in the room. The room, bed and bathroom were very nice!

Cons. REALLY DISLIKED THE SERVICE WHEN IT CAME TO OUR BILL AT THE END. We were told that breakfast was included, I even clarified to make sure. Guess what happens at the end of our breakfast (a very small limit breakfast) we get a lovely bill of 30 USD. We tried arguing with them and they held firm, I thought it was incredibly bad service to argue something this small and not offer a refund. I was really not impressed. The room also smelled like asphalt because roofing was being done. How lovely it is to be woken up in the middle of our sleep due to incredibly loud banging and slamming of concrete above our heads and to be inhaling toxic fumes during the morning.
