2/5
Nice location but very bad service especially at the restaurant. I cannot believe I was profiled by the staff at the restaurant. I could not be allowed to enjoy my food in peace as I was asked for my room number repeatedly. A waitress watching me eat from the side like a spy 😂😅. Very uncomfortable. I think worst Best Western I've been to so far.

It’s a very good and classic place to hangout with friends, though slightly expensive but it worth it, located in a secure and reserve area and high level of security. Good reception quality service food and drinks
