Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers high-tech comfort with beautiful rooms that are on par with typical accommodations. The staff was helpful, attentive, and proficient at their job, providing excellent service. The location was perfect for exploring great dinner spots and shopping areas. The dining experience had plenty of options, and the facilities were top-notch.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with great rooms once I figured out the high-tech controls and enjoyed a good breakfast. Unfortunately, the Jacuzzi tub was out of order. The high-tech comforts in the room, from the different shower heads to the centrally controlled lighting, were delightful, and the super comfortable king bed made for a relaxing stay.
The hotel rooms were very clean and luxurious, offering a pampering experience upon arrival, though there were disturbances due to noise until late at night. The service was a mix of courteous and friendly staff, with some areas needing improvement. The location was great, close to downtown and filled with potential but needing attention. The dining experience, while basic, offered specially cooked items but fell short of 5-star quality.
I had a high-tech comfort stay with great room amenities, though it took me a bit to figure out the controls. The staff was accommodating and offered helpful services, including an elegant spa-provided accessibility chair. The location was perfect for exploring the vibrant city, despite some rough edges. The dining options were complete, yet slightly limited, with lovely presentation.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though better than adequate, lacked proper cleaning, especially the bar area. However, the exceptional bathroom made up for it. The service was courteous and friendly, with a magnificent breakfast and accommodating staff. The location was convenient, within walking distance of the downtown area and eateries, but could use some attention.

Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, but there is room for improvement.

The hotel had modern and clean rooms, but I was a little disappointed to find a bag of dirty towels on our arrival. The room was unexpectedly dark when we arrived in the afternoon, and the pillows were not as comfortable as expected. However, the cleanliness and modern lighting were impressive, considering the price we paid.
