8/10 Very Good

The stay was very good. The only difficulty was we were given a nice room with the view we preferred. However while we left to wait for check in time, the room was no longer available (no reasonable explanation as to why) and we given a room that did not have a suitable view. After considerable debate we were given a more suitable room with a better view but on a lower floor. It seems that when you book though Hotels.com that you take second.

10/10 Exceptional

All the hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The underground parking was great and the hotel was centrally located. The only downside is the proximity to the sea plane terminal which meant you could not sleep in.

2/10 Poor

Unfriendly Frontdesk staff
We are 7 in our group, I requested 2 rooms if not connecting, at least adjoining or in the same floor. We checked in at 3:45pm and we are willing to wait until 4pm for the check in time... the lady said we can check-in. We are not even done, she's already out the door to go home... when we checked our room keys, she only checked us in 1 room, so I told to another lady... and literally told her to put us closer to each other... I knew that 4 pm is the start of the check in... and I knew that there's a lot of available rooms (there's no people checking in just us bec it's Thurs, its even weekdays.. but that lady said no more availability so she has to put the other room to the 5th floor whereas the other on the 2nd in spite of requesting to put us in the same floor.

Expensive hotel without high end “ frills”
A great stay but not as “ posh” as we thought it might be considering the price. Our brunch was good but the bacon and “ hash browns” were over-cooked and it would have been nice to be able to order some fresh fruit-7/10
