Excellent Stay
We felt welcomed from the moment we walked through the door. The room was comfortable and well appointed. The free breakfast was very European and delicious. Transportation around the city was free to hotel guests and easy to use. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

Overall fine but they don't have separate shampoo, conditioner and body wash. It's an all-in-one in the shower but it really was just soap. Also no lotion. Great location, good breakfast included but be prepared to bring your own above mentioned toiletries

Not worth the cost
Hotel was very basic for the price ($420 per night). Barely any amenities, no hair dryer, no coffee or tea kettle. The heater in our room was not working and their solution was more blankets! Breakfast was simple but ok.

Excellent Customer Service.
Excellent front desk customer service. The wife and I arrived early afternoon on New Year’s Eve, I asked if they have any recommendations for a restaurant for dinner. The front desk went above and beyond to call and around and find a last minute dinner reservation for us. Fantastic hotel.
