Acceptable stay with some issues

street noise sound proofing

The breakfast provided a nice variety of food options.

My room was located at the front of the hotel. It overlooked a VERY busy main road. Loud partying continued into the early hours. constant sirens disrupted my sleep. Soundproofing the front windows is a MUST.

The rooftop bar offered great drinks.

The room I had was outdated. The bed and pillows felt rock solid and a lot of the plug sockets didn't work. Building work occurred with drilling and hammering noises on the outside wall of my room and they didn't tell me about it.
