Resort fees are deceptive.

I’m very disappointed by the lack of transparency on these resort fees. They should be much clearer at the point of making a decision. I find it deceptive by all parties involved.

Not a place to work

The shared mix room was ok. The bathroom is inside your dorm, which is amazing. Additionally, the bathroom was always clean, and cleaning services were available almost every day. However, the room doesn’t have so many necessary items, such as iron or hairdryer, there was no shampoo or soap. They only give you one towel per stay, and if you want another one they charge you 5usd. The coworking space was PRETTY loud! And we cannot hold a business meeting without distraction. They didn’t let me take my call in the stairs, which was the only quiet place in the building. The cafe has amazing baristas, but it is open until 2. Anyways, I would come back if I’m on vacation, but there is no way I come back there for a business trip

We had a problem the first night with our room due to noise from the gym, which was directly across from our room. The receptionist offered to move us to another room which turned out to be very quiet. We really appreciate her being so kind and understanding.

It was my first time experiencing a dorm type setting. Although pricewise it was great, as it was a last minute booking. However the other occupants weren't considerate. It was also weird to hear the room door being opened once almost settled in for the night. Bathrooms were dated.
