Happy stay!

The giraffe was in a great location. It was clean. It was quiet. The air conditioning worked. The only thing that I would say is that it was quite hot in the hallway and the elevators were extremely slow and looked worn.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was very close to transportation and many restaurants but because it was located on a busy corner it was very noisy with sirens, horns honking and construction trucks passing by all night long. The building opposite it was under construction. The room was outdated but very spacious, clean and comfortable. There was no fan or window in the washroom. Although there was a 24 hour snack program in the main lobby and a good continental breakfast it would have been nice to have a coffee machine and a fridge in our room. There was a lovely rooftop patio but it was only available to us for part of our stay. Although there was a bar and restaurant associated with the property it was in the basement rather than on the main floor. The staff was very polite and attentive and tried to make our stay enjoyable.

Remarkable and wonderful staff with clean rooms and excellent location to be close to tourist sites but not in the middle of the tourist crowds. Suite was a bit uncomfortable due to furniture choices and a really awful "sofa bed" where the cushions slide off opening to the metal frame of the bed underneath. That hurt when my hand slipped into the gap. Breakfast was a very basic American continental style with a few pastry options, oatmeal, fruit and yogurt, and underwhelming. Overall, wouldn't turn away from staying again here, but would comsider alternate options first just for a more comfortable living space in the suite.
