Pretty bad, actually!!!

Terrible beds, the private bathroom was a mystery, you had to shower from a stationary shower head over the toilet. They charge you extra for the towels and the digital checking was a nightmare. They have a nightclub downstairs so forget about getting a good night sleep. Very expensive for the kind of service.

Would not book again

Beautiful view in daytime from the 5th floor. Lighting inside the room terrible though so really not pleasant after sun down (one of the lights not working on top of that). The bed is quite high of the ground. The shower is awful. The great thing about this place is the location. Next time I will pick a hotel for the same price but a few blocks away.
