Fit for a King and Queen
Great hotel with modern, trendy flair. cozy, dimly lit atmosphere in dining area during dinner. Classy,upscale, funky decor catering to singles, couples and the business community. The visit was part holiday and part business. I have stayed at many upscale hotels, however, the service here far exceeded those establishments. Loved the restaurant. Great location with tons of eateries nearby, but the hotel restaurant, March, was by far my favorite. They even catered to my request for some of the local cuisine not on the menu. Lovely pool, excellent staff, who actually became my friends for the the extended stay. Loved the gated community surrounding the hotel complex, very safe, lots of security. I went out often at night without any problems. Loved the cool attire of the doormen and friendly service, they actually do know you by name. Very comfortable rooms and impeccable housekeeping. Kudos to the Manager who took care of every request. Did I mention the restuarant and the staff, ok, I guess you can tell I really enjoyed breakfast every morning as well as some dinners for over 20 days!! Did I mention the staff, ok I really enjoyed the company! Very cozy library bar,perfect space for meetings or friendly gatherings, has a surround sound private movie viewing room as well as pool table. Loved the in room DVD movie collection as well as the upgraded in room sound system. Far exceeded my expectations, Upscale but not stuffy! We will definitely see you all again in the future!

Short walk from hotel
A very short walk to a small shopping mall, shops, pharmacy etc. Lots of upscale shops with designer items. A grocery store and other services available. Really, an all inclusive community.

The staff are very friendly and
The staff are very friendly and welcoming and try to be of assistance when required. The one problem is that the menu in the restaurant has not changed in at least a month. There are no specials offered and if you are on business and regularly eating in the restaurant it becomes a bit boring. This is one point that would elevate the Service from 'good' to 'very good'.

Great Location- Easy & Safe
Good spot if you are in town for work and not a bad place if you had a night or two before traveling outside the city. There are plenty of shops/restaurants in this safe and gated complex. Not a resort or leisure spot.
