1/5Awful don't book.1 Jul 26

Regret booking this hotel. They are no longer a gay hotel. So many women feels unfriendly and I felt really uncomfortable.very exploitative of gay men.

5/5Incredible atmosphere - no attitude1 Jul 26

The rooms are a little basic, but the pool area and atmosphere is one of the best I’ve experienced anywhere. The gym is very good for a hotel. I was advised it was full of gym crowd party boys.

Every shower flooded the bathroom and water ran into the living area. The air conditioning stopped working for most of our stay, and despite repeated complaints we we…
