Overall good stay
Main issue for me was noise. Rooms are not sound proof and street noise woke my infant well before his normal time everyday which resulted in tired baby and parents. Reservations are not helpful and one of them is rather inhospitable, she made sure to say her name extremely quickly to ensure it was impossible to discern.

Not worth it
Room was very small and bathroom was awkwardly designed. Shower glass couldn’t cover so water gets all over. Bathroom was so small and hard to use. Also, they put us on 2nd floor by the side street. Constantly there were noisy from the street when they have shipments arriving to the hotel. I suggest to request on higher floor. It wasn’t worth paying that much as 5 star hotel. We stayed CQ afterwards, it was bigger with free water and gourmet coffee all you can. Which was great!
