6.2/10

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient with easy subway access and close to cafes and restaurants, but there were some cleanliness issues and noise concerns in the rooms. The staff was a mixed bag - friendly and helpful at times but also unaccommodating in certain situations.

Rooms

The rooms were decent overall, but there were some setbacks. We had a noisy HVAC unit outside our window and encountered a big cockroach in the bathroom. The strong artificial scents gave us headaches.

The staff's service was a mixed experience. While some were extremely helpful and obliging, others let a noisy party go on until 3 am and even knocked on our door early in the morning.

The hotel's location is convenient for those wanting to be in this area, with easy subway access and nearby dining options. However, the cleanliness standards, with cigarette butts on the stairs and abandoned wine glasses, were disappointing.

The hotel room in the park view section was small but clean. The strong artificial vanilla and cinnamon smell was overpowering and gave me headaches. It would have been better if the pool and jacuzzi were accessible and indoors for more convenience.

I couldn't believe how convenient it was for me to go straight to my room without having to go through the main lobby in my swimwear or gym clothes. The room was nice, spacious, had a good closet, and a comfortable mattress. However, it did have a bit of an old and damp smell and only supplied toiletries for one guest even though there were two beds.

8.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms exceeded my expectations for a luxury hotel, but the initial wait at the reception was off-putting. Although the rooms were excellent, they were unfortunately filthy and had a noticeable moldy odor. On the bright side, the service was uniformly excellent, with friendly and helpful staff eager to assist. The location was convenient, but the inability to book an evening meal at the restaurant was a downside. The dining experience was excellent overall but pricey. Despite these issues, the facilities offered were superb.
