The whole floor smelt like over cooked cabage it was disgusting. There was no access to tooth brushes (surely there should be some spares at reception avail on request or to purchase) and the room while clean was in need of a decent upgrade. Very expensive room for the standard of the premises

For a hotel of this quality we expected our room to be serviced daily but it wasn't. Unless you stay 3 nights you don't receive any housekeeping service - which in our view was poor.

Good stay. The kitchen could be better equipped. If we needed to cook there it would have been very challenging. No knifes for chopping and no scissors. Also limited crockery and food prep items

It was dirty Pubic hair and stains all over the beds We complained and were moved rooms It was better but still Dirty and big Pubic hair on the hand towel in the bathroom I have complained directly to the hotel and given them a chance to respond before placing a public review They have not bothered to respond I would like to give others a heads up before booking I don’t know if it’s their “Expedia allocated rooms” or what But for over $200 a night I expect a basic standard of cleanliness Disgusted actually dirtiest place I’ve stayed in all my travels around the world
