Seems like the way to go to me; 17k/ni at that property is really great. Between my family and friends who traveled at the same time with us, we had five rooms last month and the only issue was they decided to do some maintenance in the room above ours at 11pm one night, but quickly stopped when we reported the noise. Not sure what you mean about the reputation other than just being generally expensive, but you can solve that problem by stopping at grocery / liquor stores on the way from the airport. Certainly isn't like Mexico where it's generally unsafe to leave the tourist area on your own these days.
