Only reason I gave 4 stars was for breakfast. It may save money on wastage but I don't want to wait for eggs to be cooked. Fried / scrambled option where bacon was would be good. I felt like I was watching others eat while I waited. Please note this is NOT a criticism of the staff or person cooking as they were great!

I wanted to give Urban Isle a 5 star review. However, I am used to having a safe in the room when I travel and this hotel didn't have one. So I had to keep all my valuables with me the whole time as I went out and about. Everything else was excellent. The room was tidy, the air conditioner was working, the food was amazing, the staff were lovely, the location was good, the lift was always working, the view from the roof terrace was cool.
