an underwhelming stay

terrible noise used condiments

The room decor seemed quite modern.

Traffic noise was TERRIBLE. It made it hard to sleep. I found partly used condiments with my breakfast. The absence of hot water one morning REALLY impacted my experience.

complimentary minibar luxurious touch

the room featured a complimentary minibar stocked with treats. bath salts and robes added a luxurious touch. the bathroom felt fine, a space where every little detail had been considered (i especially loved the bath salts!).

i found no plug sockets near mirrors. it was hard to style hair with no mirror nearby. even after ringing the doorbell, i couldn't find assistance.

A Decent Stay

clean room comfortable bed chilly room refrigerated food

The room was quite fantastic and clean. I appreciated that the bed was very comfortable and the room felt less like a typical hotel room than I expected. The bathroom also felt fantastic with its large rainforest shower and heated floor following a day of walking around..

My room was cold, and it remained quite chilly despite attempts to warm it. The continental breakfast came refrigerated. Croissants and jams were freezing cold, as was the accompanying fruit. It was not enjoyable right after delivery.

lovely size comfortable bed helpful staff poor sound insulation awkward tap

The room was a lovely size with a very confortable bed. the staff were very helpful. They changed the yogurt and kind of fruit in the breakfast to my preference. it felt very considerate. i was looking forward to seeing the new breakfast room and bar on my next stay!!!

sound insulation was poor. footsteps overhead and doors banging early in the morning were quite loud. the tap in the bathroom was so close to the basin, i had to get into the shower to fill the kettle. it was a bit awkward.
