Overall very good
This is overall an excellent hotel, near to the airport and easy accessibility to the city.
There is a wide food selection.
The breakfast selection is actually impressive in terms of range, quality and service.
There is local food, western and even a wide fruits and cheese selection well housed in a fridge.
Room service was not so good - wings are warm but chips r cold; added chicken to the Caesar salad but chicken was so dry; ordered the chicken and a portion of rice - in the end the chicken had rice on the side so I I had too much. Person on the call taking the order could have informed.
Check in requires improvement too - I am here for almost two weeks - I did inform clearly on the reservations - every time they said they would link the reservation, my room key does not work so I have to keep calling them. Then it is done again.
The rooms are large and clean with good AC , shower and bath tub.
Still a great choice but needs improvements on the areas with repeated service gaps.

I did not like the way I was treated by the staff on duty on the 13th. I arrived around 10 PM and since I had not received the invoice for the stay on the 7th, I requested that they issue it. The staff on duty first claimed it was no longer possible and then said they were too busy, even though there were fewer than 7 people in line. I said I could wait as long as necessary, but it didn’t help. The issue was only resolved by the staff who started their shift at midnight, and they assisted me in less than 5 minutes
