8.6/10 Excellent! (438 reviews)

Comfortable. Excellent location. The massage chairs in the lobby are a HUGE Plus!! we really enjoyed them after walking all day around the city. The breakfast could be served earlier (available only from 7:30-10:30am). And it would be nice if they had a cafeteria instead of bringing it to the room as it felt a little cramped for us to eat in the guest room.
