Reviews and Ratings
The hotel features a stunning modern design and spacious rooms. Unfortunately, the service was lacking, particularly regarding check-in, room upkeep, and elevator access. Despite these issues, the comfortable accommodations made for a pleasant stay overall.
I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort of my room and enjoyed the leafy streets surrounding the hotel. The staff were nice, and the taxis were conveniently just outside. However, the lack of nearby delis or restaurants meant I had to walk a bit to find better dining options.
The hotel is impressive with its modern architecture and spacious lobby, but the service falls short. The rooms are well-designed and comfortable, but the overall management needs improvement. I enjoyed my stay, but the elevators and service issues made the experience less than ideal.
I had a pleasant surprise at this hotel, enjoying a very comfortable room in a leafy area. The staff was nice, and the lobby was well-lit with good sitting areas. However, I found the lack of nearby restaurants or cafes a bit inconvenient, which required a short walk to find more dining options.
