Positief: Netheid, staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
We took a small group for a corporate outing. Wrong hotel for this kind of thing.
In all fairness, if you're looking for a nightclub-inspired or party cruise, posing as a hotel, this is your place. We had heard that SLS is more of an "adult" hotel at Baha Mar - what we didn't understand is that means "adults who want to party hard" like they're on college Spring Break. The lobby literally turns into a dance club in the evenings with a DJ and music so loud you'll think you walked into a nightclub.
The King Ocean View room is more akin to a cruise ship room, with no privacy between the bathroom and bed area, and a shower about the size of a large phone booth. The room itself is about average in size and if the bathroom had been private would have been okay.
Calling our room, on the 7th floor, "ocean view" is a stretch. You mostly see the tree-tops of the pool area with a distant view of the ocean. Yes you can see it but it's far from what I expect out of a room labeled for a view.
The hotel lobby area is beautiful and seemed to be well-maintained. The fitness center is nicely appointed and was never busy early in the morning - one advantage to the all-night party crowd being there.
There was some loud construction taking place outside by the pool area which wasn't ideal but that's not why I'm going with 2-stars. It's the mis-managed expectations of a Spring Break / Las Vegas all-day party scene vs a more tranquil, relaxing, place for a company event.
