The rooftop restaurant provided a nice choice of international food. I also appreciated the trendy decoration of the room, it was something different. The location was convenient and easy to access. I thought the front desk staff was helpful.

I found the service to be lacking .

missing thermostat unrestocked minibar

My stay had a few bumps. My room lacked a thermostat for temperature control. Street noise kept me up at night, and one morning I got a wake-up call I never requested. The bathroom layout felt impractical, and the minibar only came with a few items that were not restocked.

the breakfast had very good ingredients and a good selection. comfy beds were provided and the room had nice storage in the bathroom. i found this to be a good stay.

the front desk employees i encountered upon arrival were not helpful. one of them was aggressive when asking for my id. i also heard that they said to come and get water myself when i called the reception to ask if you could send water to the room.
