"Our key card had to be fixed 4 times during a 3 day stay. It was a bit ridiculous having your hands full and luggage or food or shopping etc and have to get out walk to the desk stand in line and wait for them to ask you if you held it next to your phone to which you would reply no then they would redo it again for the 4th time. Bar was fine. View from the bar was great. Good location. Staff was nice."

"We had a great stay! The hotel has a really cute rooftop terrace with a great view of the city. On-site laundry was convenient. Theres also a little gym in the basement. Good location! Great staff! My only downside was that the property is a bit run-down and dusty. There were stains on the carpet and curtains in our room, and visible dust in the air. However, its a great deal if you are not planning on spending a lot of time in your room."
