Disappointed Traveler

I've travelled to 40 countries over the past 20 years, and this was the most disappointing hotel experience. I was approached during an afternoon walk around the area by a local safety team patrol member to inform me that it was a high crime area and was offered an escort back to the hotel. The water system had problems my last 5 days at the hotel with intermittent outages daily and no communication plan from the hotel to the guests. The elevators were not always reliable, the weekend staff was not knowledgeable about the surrounding area, and the 1 night I visited the hotel restaurant, the majority of the menu was not available. If I had not prepaid for the hotel, I would have checked out the first day the water was not available.

A diamond in the city!!

Had a great stay! The staff is professional but they could be friendlier. It would be nice if they had complimentary condoms in the room. Also, we didn't know which number to dial for reception..it was not displayed on the bedside. Overall: it's a great hotel!
