The lobby area is very bright and modern. I thought the views from the 9th floor were great.. I really liked the ambiance and atmosphere around the hotel. The supermarket nearby is super handy.

There was no fridge in my room, sadly. They also don't offer daily room service, a bit inconvenient. I had to ask the reception to change towels or empty the trash bin..
