The location near the underground was really convenient. Staff were super friendly and helpful. I found the classic king room quite spacious. The bars, especially the coral room, were amazing for cocktails. The doormen were always very cute too.
The entrance felt a bit inconvenient since it was off the street on a private road. the bathroom was rather tiny. I could barely take a shower. I expected a larger space in a hotel of this standard.
