Great fancy stay with very welcoming staff and service during our stay until the checkout day! we realized at the end that all services delivered to us were paid and the driver has been counting days we were not getting any of his services, for example he counted the checkin day as one of his driving days although I haven’t seen him during that day and took taxi from airport to the hotel assuming that the driver will start his payment and work starting from second day when my friend arrives, but we discovered at the checkout day that everything is money and had to pay the driver for unused days during our stay. I recommend staying at the hotel but be careful and use external services or keep asking about extra charges on daily basis. And try to get a driver from a different company than the hotel if really needed.

I truly enjoyed my stay. I slept really well. The duration of my stay was great, my room was very comfortable. The front desk staff was exceptional. I wish I knew the young woman’s name because she deserves a promotion :) for sure! Breakfast was great everyday and I got a chance to eat at the restaurants as well. The only thing I was sad about was that I picked this property for the spa and gym mainly. The gym was very small, and the spa was under construction. So I was a disappointment. Nevertheless, I would stay here again, also recommend, if someone needed a suggestion.
