Great location, fabulous suite, had a massage in the spa, beautiful rooftop bar with infinity pool.
We enjoyed the gourmet breakfast and top notch bar/ restaurant for dinner
The staff was amazing. They were friendly, helpful and went out of the way to make sure our stay was pleasant. The location is good. Facility and amenity sufficient. We were assigned the most noisy room right above a street cafe. We were ok since we live in a suburb and we wanted to experience city life. A piece of advice to the management, do NOT assign rooms based on your customers race though. In this age and time this practice is bad.
