Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, offering extreme comfort. The service was top-notch, and the location was excellent, allowing easy access to theaters, restaurants, and beautiful beaches. The dining experience, due to low season, was satisfactory. The facilities provided added convenience to my stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The location was unbeatable, being partnered with the Opera House and a house theater, and close to Lido Keys. However, the rooms, despite being comfortable, were noisy due to the all-night DJ on the roof. The service was excellent, with very friendly staff, but some areas like the stained sheets and dirty carpet needed attention. The dining experience, while offering Japanese dishes, was affected by the low season. Overall, a good stay with a few areas of improvement.
I had a great time at the hotel! The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and the rooftop bar was excellent. The noise from the all-night DJ on the roof was a bit disruptive, but overall, it was a fantastic stay.
