The staff was great. Special thats to Jefferson, Jane and Anthony. Walking outside the hotel was not easy or something I will do again. However I will choose this hotel on my next visit. If you are a party person you have to go westlands.

Very tiny shower with only rain head fixture. Good breakfast and restaurant… everything else was average or below. Scheduled to stay 7 more days on 12/21 but canceled due to poor experience.
