Great vibe, awesome location and the room was super clean, spacious and modern.
Morgan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and comfortable rooms

It's located in the earth of Paceville, thus don't expect a quite atmosphere. I would suggest, if possible, to ask for a room at an high floor. Mine was 9 floor, room 904, and other than having a nice view over the city and sea, it was very well soundproofed. With window closed, you don't earn any noise from the street and all clubs next to the hotel.

Nice
Beniamino, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

In general, the area is lively and full of shopping centers, restaurants, and nightclubs. However, it is extremely noisy at night, and you can’t sleep before 4 a.m. I wouldn’t recommend this area for people looking for a quiet place to stay.
Hussam, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

The cleaning was absolutely unacceptable – careless and disgusting. There were cockroaches in two different rooms. We hadn’t even had time to sleep in the second room before cockroaches showed up there too. That’s beyond gross – it’s a health hazard. We asked to speak to the manager, and he told us to eat breakfast first and that we could talk after. But when we finished, he just sat there chatting with someone else, fully aware we were waiting. That level of unprofessionalism is shocking. I couldn’t sleep for four nights because of the stress and discomfort. In the end, I had to cut my trip short and book an early flight home. I came here to relax on vacation – instead I got one of the worst hotel experiences of my life. This hotel is a complete joke. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Stay far away

This hotel is ideal if you are wanting to be close to the nightlife. Our last night we had to come back to hotel around 3am as flying the next day, hotel is right on the strip, we were on second floor and our window looking onto the bars yet we never heard much noise and managed to get to sleep fine. The rooftop pool is small and not lots of beds but we always managed to get some with a group of 8. The bar man was great, the cocktails and bar snacks were tasty! We managed to keep one of our rooms on for aater check out, the staff were really helpful with this. I would definitely recommend if you want to be close to the nightlife.

Staff were extremely friendly, the rooms were clean. The only downside was if you aren’t planning on staying awake till 4-5am every night listening to the base from the clubs absolutely do not stay here.

Great hotel, I will definitely recommend this hotel, if you are young, vibrant, and love to party, it’s located right in the middle of the party scenes, the rooftop even though it’s small, it’s nice, the check-in was smooth and pretty everything I needed was a walking distance away

Es ist ein hotel für eine coole Party Zeit auf jeden fall Das Personal ist immer freundlich und hilfsbereit Das Ambiente ist super und erstklassig Ein past mängel gibt es aber über die kann man wegsehen Was schade ist das der pool um 19:30 zumacht Den der Sonnenuntergang im pool wäre noch ein Höhepunkt gewesen

Near all the bars, shops and restaurants. Nice pool. Nice people/personnel. Good advise to sleepata higher level, because of the noise at night. With the Windows close and a good airco its allright then. Thanks for the nice time.

Neues Hotel, sauber und sehr modern eingerichtet. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist ausreichend. Schöner Pool auf der Dachterrasse. Die Partymeile ist quasi gleich vor dem Hotel. Ingesamt ein tolles Hotel mit klarer Weiterempfehlung.

Amazing hotel. Room was very clean and the staff were great. Perfect location
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Decent place to stay. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Just keep in mind you are staying in the nightlife district and it gets loud and stays loud at night. They do provide earplugs which help massively. Only other minor comment is they used some sort of perfume in the room that was a bit strong at first. I recommend the room.
