6/10
Good energy but BE WARNED. Very much a local standard hotel with serious deficiencies. There are two buildings and the room types vary a lot. I was in the second building just past the pool which has ~12 pool facing rooms on ~3 floors. Here are the problems:
Bathroom: The bathroom door is not floor to ceiling but more like a shower door or public toilet stall door. So to be blunt every sound and smell in the bathroom is also in the bedroom. The bathroom has zero exhaust fan or ventilation other than through the door into the room. Shower was mediocre.
Aircon: Very loud window-type aircon unit that struggled to cool the room (but eventually did). There seemed to be 2 settings. Off and Max. The first night the noise was constant (which is a good thing). The second night it went on and off I guess as it hit its temperature targets. That's bad because just as you are falling asleep it gets noisy.
Window curtain: Not blackout at all. Very little light shielding so early morning the room is fully light. I covered it with a blanket which worked pretty well.
Noise: Thick concrete walls and no street exposure so very quiet. BUT half the rooms in the other building face the street so very noisy.
On the positive side just felt like hotel california. I'm sure many great days drinking margarits by the pool. The density forces you to interact with other guests. Some rooms have full kitchen terraces facing the pool. You can just feel many great times!!
