Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: - Sunset / sunrise views were very nice - the rooms are big and always clean - staff was very polite at all times - Sora restaurant is very good

Negative: - I believe that the quality of furniture in the sunset bar can be slightly improved - staff is very polite but need to be a little more communicative to be able to understand more - mini bar checking cannot happen prior we depart the room - room 220 doesn't correspond to the pictures and is very loud

Summary: Very relaxing, calm help to get our of daily routine
