1. That being said - the hotel smells like pets.
"Trendy but overpriced for the compromises " Read full review on TripAdvisor   4/11/2012 Vote      
2. They switched us to an 8th floor room, which had the weird smell of whatever 'natural products' they use to clean up after the pets, and also happened to be overlooking the pool, where a party was being held.
"Not my type of hotel, but OK " Read full review on TripAdvisor   3/4/2012 Vote      
3. - Room 601 also had a very musty/mildew smell coming from the bathroom.
"Good and Not So Good " Read full review on TripAdvisor   1/17/2012 Vote      
4. Cons: The modern bathroom sink has a high faucet and shallow sink, which means that water will ALWAYS splash on you/your clothes; The sink counter is simply too high for shorter people (I am 5'3') so it's very hard to use; The room had a musty smell; There is no coffee maker in the room - only in the lobby - so if you need coffee before you face people for the day, you're out of luck; The room could really use more lights; No dresser (but large closet); Not enough staff at the pool bar/restaurant so you have to wait a long time to get served.

6. They do not smell like hotel (you know what I mean), and they actually made me forget about the beach for a while, which is a near impossible feat.

9. When we entered our room (606) the first thing we noticed was the mouldy smell of the room, we dont understand where this smell came from as the room was clean and there was no sign of mould in the bathroom but it was quite unpleasant.
"Dissapointed " Read full review on TripAdvisor   8/26/2010 Vote      
10. The bathroom did, however, have a lingering mildew smell.
