Very nice property right beside a shopping mall and many different restaurants. Nicer area to stay in. At night the lobby/bar area was quite busy with many people hanging out for drinks and food, nice atmosphere. There is a beautiful rooftop view with a pool, although it was too cold for the time I was there. It is a bit far from the airport about a 30 minute drive. I would stay here again due to the safer area and shopping around.
