Did not like the housekeeping staff making excessive noise in the hallway when cleaning rooms. Sign posted on door that I wanted to not be disturbed & rest and they yelled down hall and slammed doors for extended period of time each day. Coffee machine in lobby nice.

Comfortable stay.
A lovely stay. Nice room - we were upgraded to superior room without asking, which was nice. The check in was quick and easy as we'd done most of the paperwork prior to arrival online. Roof top has lovely views across the city. Didn't have breakfast so unable to comment on that.
