Excellent Stay with Friendly Staff!

convenient location friendly staff complimentary drinks

I found the location convenient. Major attractions were easily accessible. The staff was very helpful and friendly throughout my stay. I especially liked the complimentary coffee, hot chocolate, and tea available daily. My room was clean and quiet. It faced the inner atrium.

The room size was a bit small. It worked for one person but might be tight for more.

The hotel has a 24/7 concierge service, which I used several times. Baggage storage is available for a small fee. I appreciated having a lounge area with toilets and a shower to use after checkout. It was very useful.

Complimentary coffee, hot chocolate, and tea were available in the breakfast room from 12:00 to 20:00. This was convenient. There was also a selection of tea bags available . I found this a really nice perk!

tiny room missing fridge

The room was small, i'm talking ridiculously tiny. there was hardly any space to move around. the lack of a fridge was annoying. I couldn't even keep my water cold. it's a basic amenity that should be standard, especially at this price point.
