Great breakfast and right near the mall. Rooms were of decent size but you could hear the music from downstairs when you are in the lower floors. I had issues getting an uber from the front entrance, as there is a lot of security. The sites are a bit away from the hotel but I knew beforehand. The area around the hotel can get busy due to the mall and the sea area in front of it.
