8.8/10 Excellent! (1,168 reviews)

The room decor is very trendy and not stuffy, and the bed is comfortable, but this does not have the atmosphere for a luxury hotel. Our check in was very awkward, the clerk told me to tap to pay, and after I tapped my phone, and it charged, he told me they didn’t take Apple Pay and next time at their properties I should not tap my phone. It was just weird. Then he told us that he did not recommend the hotel rooftop bar, which frankly was part of the reason I chose this hotel. Then he told me they sometimes had comp tickets for the cover charge of the bar, but he was out of them. Why tell me that?
