Great location, it was easily accessible to train and bus lines. Lots of sites and things to do within walking distance. Staff were amazing! The only issue we had was with the elevator. At certain times, it was super slow and packed, so there would often be a wait. It was find during non-peak hours. Other than that, I would highly recommend.

Room is very spacious but a bit dated, especially the bathroom which needs an upgrade. The windows aren't that well sound proof as we could hear the traffic even thought we were on the 10th floor. Staff are friendly and curteous. Buffet breakfast was very good with a variety of choices. There was renovations taking place which we were made aware of after we've booked it, but that didn't bother us as we were out during the day. However, the lack of available lifts due to the renovations made us wasted a lot of time just waiting for an available lift with enough space for us.
