A lovely exterior and lobby with incredibly friendly staff, however there was hardly any drinking/filtered water in the rooms, and it was easier to just buy them rather than request it from the hotel. The mattress and pillow quality was terrible. Location is highly convenient and overall not the worst experience but also below expectations.
