I had high hopes for this hotel given its midcentury charm, but my stay was marked by some serious shortcomings. While the architecture is truly appealing and the pool area is a nice spot to relax, the service and room conditions left much to be desired. My overall experience felt undervalued considering the price tag, especially after being downgraded from my booked suite due to overbooking. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for a seamless stay.
