Acceptable, but with Definite Drawbacks

easy accessarrogant staffno room change
The hotel's location allowed for easy access to the city.
The arrogance of the staff, especially David, the night manager, was infuriating. As hotel guests, we could not eat at the fully booked restaurant, even though we wanted to dine there the following day. We got a room under the restaurant and, from 7 a.m., sleeping was impossible. I asked to change rooms, but staff claimed they were fully booked, even though I could reserve other rooms online.

i loved the thoughtful touches provided by the hotel. a complimentary drink was available upon arrival. valentine's chocolates were in my room, a pleasant surprise. the staff allowed me to use the spa after checkout, which i found quite generous.
the bar closed relatively early, at 10:30pm, even on weekends. this felt limiting.
