9/10 Wonderful! (5,535 reviews)
We got a room in the 32nd floor with city view. It was amazing. Cleeeeeean and fresh. Bathroom was stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap and lotion. Fridge stocked daily with 2 bottles of water. Room was also cleaned daily with fresh towels and rags. You could also request your sheets to be changed. Hotel was super clean. A solid 10/10. However breakfast do nit start at 6. More like 6:30-7:00. So if you have an early flight or excursion forget about trying to grab breakfast. A variety of food options were available too. We paid $160 cash for deposit and hit it back upon check out. Location is central and a lot of things were walking distance or close by uber. We spent 7 days and I’d go right back.
