The location was very convenient. I walked easily to many attractions. The room had a coffee machine, a very nice touch. The staff was friendly (especially at breakfast!).

The sky light blinds were hard to pull down. This let a lot of light into the room early in the morning, waking me up.

The hotel features a hidden lounge located between floors -1 and -2. This area provides a quiet, comfortable space for relaxation or informal meetings, away from the busier public areas.
