Everything was amazing except roof top pool changes to night club at 6 pm. Not my thing and the hotel has another pool option. Unfortunate if you have an expensive top floor room as the club music is super loud and can be heard in the room and the balcony becomes unusable.
Roof top pool is amazing until it turns into a night club
