Unfortunately this hotel is extremely dated and the pictures do not do it justice. Its nowhere near the standard of other 4 star hotels. We checked out immediately and stayed somewhere nicer for not much more money. I'd avoid it if I was you.

Fantastic views and while the apartment appears clean we were met with cockroaches inside the apartment towards the end of our stay. Raised this with the agents who said they were not interested as we had checked out. Love the area but will not be returning to these apartments.
