18.4/10 Exceptional! (135 reviews)

Arrived 8:50 pm and left really early in the morning. Reception closes at 8:00~8:30 pm. So could not see any staff. Had to leave the key in a box. Parking was on the driveway in open space. Nothing great but nothing to complain about. The building is old but the renovation inside was good. One thing I was annoyed about was the lack of a desk or proper table where I could do some work with my laption. There was a small round shaped table which was too small.

Staff was helpful but broken lift was unexpected (I know it is not their fault). I was with my mom who has some challenges going up and down the stairs. Unfortunately, it was 3 day weekend and it was noisy outside (street) until late at night.
