The suite was spacious and well presented upon arrival.
I encountered several issues . The room lacked seating on the balcony. Hotel food and room service prices were excessive given the remote location and taxis were expensive.

The air vent right outside the room. Was quite loud. It kept me up most of the night! I asked the staff about moving rooms, but they seemed unwilling to help. All they offered. Was a late check-out. the bar staff seemed very rude! Service was pretty slow there, too.
