I was disappointed with my stay here. The room was really outdated and small. There was no milk in the fridge for black tea. Housekeeping just walked in my room on the first evening there without knocking. The service wasn't very warm. I wish I'd have spent more and stayed elsewhere.

I had a very disappointing stay at this hotel. For the price of over $600 per night (after tax), I expected at least basic comfort — but the room had no air conditioning. Instead, there was only a very loud fan that made it impossible to sleep comfortably. On top of that, the soundproofing was terrible. I could clearly hear people coming back from the bar late at night, which made the experience even worse. For this price point, the quality of the room and facilities is completely unacceptable. Definitely not worth the money. I would not recommend staying here.

Where do I start? The room was not cleaned regularly, the toilet did not work properly, the sink was tiny, and the air conditioner was noisy. In addition to this, there were workers going past our window for days on a window washing platform to the point that we had to shut our curtains to avoid them. Of course, none of this was revealed to us when the room was sold to us as an upgrade. Finally, there was a fire alarm during our stay where we had to exit the building. We only knew it was okay to go back to our room because another guest spoke to a fire fighter. We had no communication from the hotel staff at all. When we checked out, we complained and the Hotel did not charge us for the upgrade but, in our view, this was not enough. As a result, I'm afraid that I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.
