amazing locationgood breakfastspacious room
the location was amazing for seeing the city. the breakfast selection was really good (especially the pastries!). my room was spacious and clean. the bar upstairs had unparalleled views.
the lifts could be slow at peak times (but this wasn't a big deal).
The room was super comfy. I really liked it. views and sunlight on a high floor were great! staff were all lovely. I am grateful.
The lifts were slow and small, i didn't like it. on higher floors, wind is terrible. This made it very noisy at night. the rooftop bar was disappointing. The food was too fussy.
