We did have a city view as promised, but it was nothing like the images. The way our room was positioned if you was on the diagonal so you could really only see it if you were standing towards the windows there was construction going on waiting for our car for 20 minutes, the construction workers sat on the only bench outside in the valet did not ask them to get up and move. We were left there standing with our luggage waiting on the car. The staff was very nice, but it is not a hotel will ever stay at it again.

Good hotel that is well located however it was currently under renovation which we were not informed. Whilst there was no noise from renovation it was evident the bathroom needed refurbishment. Room was clean and spacious enough. Did not use restaurant so can’t comment on food. Hopefully refurbishment will bring rooms up to standard.

Super clean hotel in the middle of the city. To lots of attractions and restaurants. Rooms are exceptionally clean and very quiet. There appears to be some renovations occurring in the lobby area, which indicates, to me that it will only get nicer.

Great location. And that is all. The staff has zero knowledge about anything around, nor do they have any authority when someone complains about something. We were on the 15th floor and from 3:30am until 6:30am there was some super loud bass music- nonstop. We called the front desk, complained the next morning and they did absolutely nothing!! A friend of ours also stayed here and her bathroom was making a very loud noise on and off all night and they gave her $90 off a $500 room. Absolutely ridiculous. Save your money and literally stay anywhere else.
