Very disappointed

The pool isnt blue at all. Was green I upgraded and paid for 2 executive rooms with lounge access. The description says espresso machine and had nothing. When i called reception they argued with me that the room does not come with the espresso machine. Kids club is just a small room with filthy and broken toys. The tv is removed from the wall, just the remote is there. Staff are rude and unhelpful at reception. Akash is very rude and needs to learn how to treat guests. No turn down service. Entrances to the mall are all closed except one which is difficult to get to as the lift close to it does not work. No halal options at all for lounge access guests. Hotel areas. Other guests were very noisy, drunk and making scenes at reception as well as by the pool area. Definitely not a hotel for families
