I was given a complimentary upgrade. The bed was comfy. I also found the shower to be great. Sky Sports on the television was a pleasant surprise.
The room felt too warm, and the air conditioning would not cool below 19 degrees Celsius. It reminded me of there was no fresh air. The rooftop restaurant played music until 1 a.m. I could hear it clearly and did not sleep well.

Amazing Stay!

perfect locationhelpful stafffresh towelsloud music
The location was perfect for exploring! Many key attractions were just a short walk away! I also appreciated the helpful staff who gladly stored my luggage after checkout. The room was very clean and the fresh towels were so nice after a long day.
The music from the rooftop bar was a bit loud until late, especially on floor six, I think quieter music would be better.

The hotel is centrally located, and the room was an okay size.
The air conditioning in my room wasn't working properly. I had to ask reception to keep resetting it, not ideal because it was a warm room. Staff did not seem to take my request seriously.
