fantastic location and kind staff

comfortable roomconvenient locationtaxi rankcold meat
The rooms were really comfortable and well laid out. I even got upgraded to a suite!!! i had been traveling for a few days, so it was wonderful. it's right next to the metro, and there is a taxi rank on the road nearby. everything i needed was easily accessible.
i was a little disappointed with the new year's eve dinner. i had booked a table at the corso restaurant, but the buffet was below average. the meat dishes should have been at least lukewarm, but they were cold. it wasn't the best experience for the price.

The breakfast buffet presented numerous selections. All staff displayed really good courtesy. the location provided simple access to local restaurants. My room included city views and ample space.
I found the parking fee to be excessive. The daily charge for hotel parking seemed too high when compared to public options. I think, including parking in the room rate would improve guest value.

Acceptable Stay, Some Shortcomings

broken air conditioningslow service
The air conditioning was NOT working properly in the room. IT was quite annoying. I had to call the front desk multiple times. The staff seemed understaffed because my requests were not addressed promptly. THERE were long wait times for service at the sky bar. IT took over 20 minutes to get two beers, and the bar wasn't even busy.
