Check in was a nightmare! I booked through Expedia and the hotel staff said they always have trouble with reservations from Expedia. I had to sit and wait for an hour to be checked into a hotel that I prepaid for. This created a bad customer experience. There is a club next to the property that is extremely loud at night.

They operate their own generator. So, if public power is cut the generator kicks in. A/C is working great restaurants and bar are good.

It’s
The normal standard room for which they over charge are not good to stay. There is lot of noise and disturbance that gets into the room from restaurants below and kids play area. The hotel management did understand the complaint and I was moved to other room which had little to noise from outside. Thanks to them for that. The staff is also attentive and attends quickly to any requests made but overall tot seems overly charged as the property is bit congested. They have nice restaurants with good vibes.
