The Blok Hotel is a great place to stay

The room caught us by surprise, it was all cement finished walls throughout. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was updated. We had a small balcony, it was perfect. There was no TV in the room, which was great because we were there to enjoy the scenery not to watch TV. It had a 24 hour access to the rooftop area with a 6 person jacuzzi. The staff was friendly and they even had books to read and board games to play with in the hallway before entering the rooms. My wife and I loved it, we will definitely stay there again in the near future.

Cool modern hotel. Front staff was great. Elevator worked inconsistently, so had to take stairs to third floor. Hard on my husband with joint replacements. Room are small but nice. Only one chair on the deck. Really loud on the street from cars blasting the stereo, and the top floor deck blasts music till about 9 pm. Good for parties but not so much for us old folks who turn in early. But a nice place overall.

During my stay, I unfortunately experienced food poisoning. When I approached the concierge for assistance in obtaining medication, I was told that I would have to wait until morning, as the hotel did not have any remedies or resources available to help.
