I was checked in immediately even though I arrived a bit early. The hotel and amenities were nice. I love the minimalist vibe of the room. Public transportation and walkable activities were only steps away. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Great!!! but screensaver

Everything from the floor level,to the view,to the comfortable king size bed was amazing.Except the screensaver for the tv didn’t reset so I couldn’t cast for 3 hours.someone probably stole the remote.but the lobby helped to solve the issue.
