What a view!
The location and view of the river and all the happenings was excellent. Ask for a view room! Bed comfortable and even though the tram is right outside, we had no trouble sleeping. Double pane windows help for sure. One elevator was out so had to use the service elevator. Nice pool but no towels at pool. Washer/Dryer in unit, but no soap and not sure if front desk sells it. Clean, comfortable room. Staff in cafe and front desk were all very nice.
