My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the city with great styling. The rooms were clean but quite small, making it tricky to move around with luggage. The staff provided excellent service and made us feel welcome. However, the dining options were pricey and not the best, which was a letdown.
