I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, with easy access to many major attractions and museums. The rooms are elegant and modern, equipped with a luxurious bathtub and a fantastic Bluetooth mirror. The service was top-notch, with fantastic customer service that made me feel truly valued. The dining experience left something to be desired, lacking variety, and only offering French fries. The facilities are excellent, offering everything I needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
