Good for a family with kids. But seems that the renovation in full scale is necessary since there are many parts and places seems very old. ##### JOONGWOO Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Hyunjun Jul 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Some facilities are old.

Close to the Imago mall but it’s not walking distance. You can grab and go to everywhere very easily. There was no hair dryer in the room so I had to ask for one. Breakfast buffet was very superb with various options from Malaysian food to Korean. ##### Jihyun Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JAHYE Jul 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities very good ##### JAHYE Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### GONJAE Aug 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good ##### GONJAE Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Amos Sep 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service Great hotel but 1 of the worse receptionist i've met.

Overall pretty good, but some areas are tired. Some rooms have been refreshed but ours wasn’t one of them. Pool area needs more beds. Breakfast a little repetitive. Bar music needs more variety. Same cd every day for many days. Lounge music in evenings tooooo loud. Being a bit picky now.😄 Overall very good value. ##### Ronald Stayed 13 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### James Feb 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Some furniture a little aged. Bathtub stopper doesn’t work. WiFi is the absolute worst of any 5star hotel I’ve ever been in. Keeps kicking u out every time you closed the phone. Have to relog in EVERY time you turn on the phone. Cell signals sucks so u are reliant on the wifi. But overall great value for such a large oceanfront suite. Location cannot be beat. Amenity is awesome and views are great. ##### James Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024
