They are clearly having problems with the roof 'tiles' of the building. It has looked the same way for month with no indications of improvement. Even if they finish the inside of the building, they have a lot of work to do on the exterior still.

How they look seems to depend very much on the lighting. At some times of day, it looks fine while a couple hours later, it looks like the roof was patched using different materials.

Someone actually just asked on their Facebook page whether they'll be open in September. The hotel is predicting a Q4 opening, so it looks like you'll be out of luck unfortunately.

Let's see about that. TIT. If there is some political unrest that might potentially affect the tourists numbers, they might push it back once again.

Not to mention an empty building is an absolute disaster for the developer. They need to start generating revenue as soon as possible or the lender will wind up owning the building.
