Great stay at Solana
Had a great stay at Solana. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was big, beautiful, and clean. The only downside was that the WiFi was pretty terrible in my room — poor connection and really slow.

The property has a very small rooftop pool and you have to recycle your pool towels or for a few they will change. I was on the 3 rd floor and there were 2 cockroaches in the room. The location is very good, close to restaurants and shopping, but there are better places to stay for the money.

Have stayed many times over the years. Friendly Staff Excellent Breakfast Very Clean Standard Room Great Value For Money. Only problem for myself this time was that the corridors to your rooms are very noisy due to tiled floors and not enough soft furnishings to dampen down the sound. Also the music around the pool area (Top Deck) is awful it needs to be addressed.
