Staying there was amazing, except the noise opposite someone was drilling all night but other than that we had a great time. Cresta could do with a ironing board and iron in the room and more tissues 😂😂😂

The hotel itself is unique architecturally. It's very eye catching. Unfortunately it seems like it's on the same level it was at 30 years ago. We tried calling room service several times but we didn't get an answer. Places offering better facilities are more reasonably priced.
