8.8/10 Excellent! (315 reviews)
This is one of those places where you seldom see staff. Everything can be done through your phone. Check in / check out / door locks / luggage storage can all be done without involving a human - which I didn't mind.Hotel was clean and very well situated. Rooms were a bit "thumpy." I kept hearing what sounded like furniture being moved around or sacks of potatoes being tossed around. Never figured out what the commotion was, but it was consistent. Overall a recommend.
