Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very quiet. Polite and helpful staff. Convenient to dining options, transport and shopping. Was a short walk to my conference facilities. There were enough people downtown to make walking to and from dinner safe. I like that the hotel was accessed by card into the lobby from the street and in the lift to the upper floors, so was secure.
