The shower was really nice except for the large gap between the bottom of the shower and the bottom of the shower curtain. HUGE puddle outside on the floor. Housekeeping must hate that, plus it's a slipping hazard

I like the location very much . However the room was too compact for me I need a desk to use my computer or write a note. There was no bathrobe which I think is a mistake The bathroom sink is small and not enough space to put my toothbrush makeup etc I also don’t like using a paper cut for water The cafe Robey was excellent

Good restaurant on the first floor and a great bar on the 6th floor rooftop bar with great views of the city. The staff were very good and helpful. Our bed was comfortable and our room was very clean. The hotel is adjacent to the elevated train and the hotel had a noise machine provided in the room. There was a DJ playing music close by that Saturday evening, so the sound machine came in handy.
