I had booked and paid for an executive room, but was initially placed in a standard apartment. Had I not brought the error to the attention of the reception myself, I would have remained in the incorrect room for the duration of my stay. Despite spending nearly two days in the wrong room, I was not offered a refund or compensation for the difference in room category. I believe a refund or appropriate adjustment should have been made, as the mistake originated from the hotel’s side.

Excellent location, safe, luxurious and helpful staff. Came with a large family and hired 3 apartments. Highly recommend for a family enough space to function like a house

If you want a hotel with no modern technology plugs, a condescending, overly familiar receptionist, staff dragging their feet, skew plugs, cables everywhere, over-priced, over entitled, hotel, then boy of boy, this is the one for you!

My family had a great stay here. This hotel was very secure and we had easy access to the mall. The men at the Concierge service and front desk are very helpful. We also were able to enjoy the pool and gym. The view of Mendala square from our suite was such a nice feature. Perfect stay and I would do it again
