the river view room provided a large terrace, it was a great spot to observe the river's activity. the staff greeted my sister and me with birthday wishes and gifts during our september birthday celebration, this complemented the hotel.
breakfast options were a bit limited and did not change daily, i felt it did not justify the additional cost. also, the noise from other rooms, the corridor, and the outside street was quite noticeable in my room, it affected my sleep.
