Hot water pot to make coffee didn’t work. The coffee was in teabags that didn’t steep very well. The hot water in the shower was hot sometimes, but only lukewarm other times. The elevator did not work, so one evening I had to walk up the stairs to my room and this morning, I had to carry my luggage down five floors to get to my Uber to the airport. The rooms are lovely, but a little dark. The staff and the conditions were great though.

Appear to apply an airline approach - nickle and dime on poorly explained charges. Don’t know meaning of the term hospitality. It’s unfortunate given great location.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the Prosecco and macaroons waiting for us in the room a perfect surprise! We took advantage of the complimentary wine tasting in the lounge which was very nice. We will definitely be back!

Pricing on Expedia is very misleading. The hotel lists a daily rate AND a separate required hotel daily rate of $50 for basically nothing but a discount in the restaurant that you must pay for. Expedia should not allow this practice or they should include this required daily fee as part of the daily rate as other sites due. I am very disappointed that Expedia allows this practice and it makes it difficult to compare hotels easily. I spend time comparing this hotel to other hotels with a similar price to only find that this hotel is $50 more when I read the fine print. This practice should be banned by law.

Great location and friendly staff, but a few issues I really liked the location — it was super convenient — and the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The room itself was nice and comfortable. However, the elevators were a bit of a hassle — only one was consistently working, and the other was on and off, which caused some delays. We also experienced some water interruptions on a couple of days, which was frustrating. With some improvements to maintenance and facilities, this place could be a great stay overall.
