This hotel has a major noise problem. Pulsating sound from a club in the building complex audible on the fourth floor until long after midnight. It's not their fault but that's not the customer's concern. Other issues: the wifi went down six times and failed to reconnect. Plus, check in time 4 pm and check out time 11 am? Come on, this isn't 2020.

This hotel is not only gorgeous and classic but the staff was incredible. They were so helpful with maps and walking directions. The big bonus was it was across from the train and buses so I didn't have to use a taxi. I like to walk and this was perfect. Room had an awesome view of the city.

Great hotel, very nice suite on the top floor, with windows on the backside of the hotel, very quiet. Extremely convenient when you have a lot of luggage, and come by train - just cross the street from the station. Room had a small issue, a sharp corner on the bench which ripped a hole in my pants. Management immediately fixed it, and offered payment for the pants. Very impressive response.

It's a great hotel except for one flaw
The staff were super friendly, the breakfast was great and the beds were clean and comfortable and the hotel is literally next to the trainstation. But the biggest and only flaw is that the carpet on the floor and the furniture on the room were very wornout and old. It felt like playing the floor is lava when you got from your bed to the bathroom. And it made the rest of the hotel feel dirty and cheap

Families travelling with kids, look no further beyond this hotel. Location is top notch and super easy access to train, boat and bus. Lots of food options nearby ( starbucks downstairs at the lobby). Clean and very spacious family rooms. We were on the sixth floor and there is a bar/small snack area on the 7th which tends to create an oily smell sometimes esp during the night time (only con i can think of). I will gladly stay here again if need be. Simply fantastic!

The hotel is next to the train station and most sights are walkable. There is not a minibar or room service at the hotel. Check in is at 4pm and we had to go back and see if the room was available after 4pm when we didn't receive a text that it was ready. The rooms are spacious. The amenities were the large bottle attached to the wall and they are very eco-aware. The Starbucks location in proximity to check in is a bit confusing but it was nice that Starbucks and McDonalds were available.
