Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were large and comfortable, with a full viewing glass for the shower, providing ample space even with an additional bed. However, the location wasn't the most convenient, and the dining options were just average.

The hotel is situated in a convenient location next to a shopping center. Although the rooms lacked maintenance and privacy, they do have a fun play area for kids and unique shower design. The service was exceptional with friendly and accommodating staff. However, the location may not be ideal for sightseeing. The dining experience was pleasant with nice food options. The facilities provided were satisfactory.

The rooms are very poor and disorderly and lack privacy due to being open to the public and local residents. However, there is a tent full of toy balls, puzzles, play-doh, and lots of kids' toys to keep the children busy, along with a full viewing glass for the shower.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although beautiful and clean, was quite dark and too hot at times. The service was awesome, with free entertainment options, but the pushiness towards booking transport was off-putting for a five-star hotel. The location, though not ideal for tourist attractions, had convenient dining options nearby. The dining experience was satisfactory during breakfast. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were extremely luxurious with good beds and a beautiful bathroom but felt old and too warm. The service was attentive, with some staff going the extra mile, but there were communication issues. The location was convenient next to a shopping mall but not ideal for exploring certain attractions. The dining had a good selection but was expensive, and the facilities were decent.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were beautiful and clean, equipped with a tent full of toy balls, puzzles, and play-doh to keep the children busy, but they tended to get too hot. The service was friendly and professional, with some areas needing improvement to match the five-star status. The location, while next to a mall which was convenient, was a bit far from some attractions. The dining was a hit or miss, but some items like bread pudding and crepes were quite enjoyable.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and filled with toys to keep kids entertained, which was great for families. The service from Giulio Martinatto and Alan at the bar/club was exceptional, making my time there pleasant. However, the location wasn't ideal for visiting attractions, although it was convenient for shopping. The dining experience at the club lounge was phenomenal, but the facilities were lacking in some aspects.

The hotel had very good beds and an extremely beautiful bathroom with a rain forest shower and a big bath tub, although the rooms were a bit stuffy initially. They eventually cooled down to a pleasant 75 F and were spacious with all the necessary amenities. The service was warm and welcoming overall, but there were some minor hiccups like clearing the tables too quickly. The location, while not in the heart of the city, had a Wanda Mall Complex nearby. The dining experience was pleasant with professional staff, though slightly overpriced. The facilities were modern and well-maintained.
