NO swimming pool and NO notice that the pool was under construction. Having Holy Saturday early morning interrupted by noise from the construction of the pool. Room smelt musty or wet and after a request of this rectification there was no follow up on our accommodation. Smoking on the balconies from others around us was a disgusting smell to walk out to when trying to enjoy the view of the construction Site below.

Amazing hotel, great location

Stay was amazing, staff is super friendly, the location is convenient & delectable breakfast. If I'm nitpicking I'd like to have had a nespresso machine instead of the other brand capsule machine which was incompatible with nespresso pods!

Nice hotel

This is a nice chain hotel. The location is central and walking distance to restaurants. The grounds are exotic but they are in the middle of construction until July 2025. The pool is closed due to the construction. They do have reciprocity with the Hilton near the Fleet Terminal for pool access. The plans for the grounds when finished look beautiful. Breakfast is nice. The room is nice.
