I enjoyed my stay. The hotel was spotless and the bed was extremely comfortable. There is daily room service, also. The staff is top notch. I think the lobby, though, needs more variation in color.

The hotel building is very thin and tall; the staircases are interestingly very narrow and compact (fun way to exercise). Don’t worry—the elevators are great and right by the staircases. I got the top floor which gave a great view. There was also a cute rubber duck in the bathroom.
