The hotel's location was wonderful. I could walk to so many places. The rooftop view was gorgeous. It reminded me of a dream. The room was always so clean and tidy, I appreciated that.

The room felt a bit small for my liking. The street outside was rather noisy, it was a little hard to sleep. The desk staff seemed somewhat distant, I desired a warmer welcome.
