Loved the rooftop bar and pool. The staff were very professional. Ryan at the reception was very helpful and made our stay a pleasure. We informed him that our plane may be late as it was a late flight and he waited for us at reception, ensuring a smooth check-in. We also had an early checkout and gave us early access to the lift. Andreas (at reception) and Tita (the housekeeping lady) were also helpful. I will definitely stay there again!

Try the Pork Belly...yum!

A quirky place! The room was smallish so if you need laptop space and there are two people, it's a little crowded BUT for the price it is great value. Fantastic restaurant. Great food at competitive prices. Friendly folks. Very good undercover parking.
