What guests report

View

Upper floors (12th+) offer stunning city skyline views; lower floors have limited views or interior courtyard views

Bed & mattress

Comfortable and high-quality mattresses praised overall; but standard beds are two singles pushed together with visible gap and separate blankets in some room types

Bathroom & water

Excellent water pressure and hot showers with heated bathroom floors; some reports of temperature control malfunction causing alternating hot/cold water

Wi-Fi

Generally reliable and strong enough for simultaneous video calls; some reports of weak connection in certain areas requiring reconnection

Breakfast

High-quality generous buffet with impressive variety and daily rotating items; well worth including; crowded during peak 8-10am hours

AC / heating

Effective cooling in most rooms; some reports of malfunctioning air conditioning leaving rooms too hot; heating in cold months can be inconsistent

Elevator

Available

Local knowledge

Request a room on the 12th floor or higher for city skyline views and to escape street noise

Book breakfast earlier (7:30am) to avoid crowds; buffet area is small and gets congested during peak hours

If you prioritize sleep quality, request softer pillows at reception—standard pillows are very thick and hard
