Perfect stay for a couple touring the city!

Great room. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean, room was energy efficient. Need to put your key in a slot to turn on the lights and air, and you can take it out when you leave for the day to reduce energy use. It was in a great location close to lots of food and the museums, but quiet during the evening for resting. My husband and I had a blast!

The design and interior decoration was outstanding. There was confusion regarding an extra breakfast charge which I was told would be waived and was not; a request for late check out was offered but declined; the hotel is not as centrally located as indicated on the web page offering. The stay was comfortable and facilities very clean.
Room layout and decoration was excellent
