Clean and spacious rooms. Staff was great! Very helpful. It is within walking distance to the cable car and had many restraunts nearby to eat. I also loved that they did valet parking. We will definitely be back!!

Fantastic staff and location, we brought our son and they put us in a room in the back where it was quieter.
Entrance is a bit confusing with the garage location since it’s on a side street and the directions don’t take you there.

The staff were amazing. So welcoming, friendly and helpful. They take customer service seriously and are passionate in what they do. The facilities are wonderful, roof top lounge, jacuzzi, gym, restaurant, free coffee and tea during certain hours, beautiful lobby, games room. The rooms are spacious, modern and fully equipped with kitchenettes. The huge bed so comfortable.
Nothing at all was a disappointment. I loved everything.

Spacious quiet room with everything we needed. Bed and sofa bed were very comfortable. Water filter available to fill up bottles. Kitchenette good for preparing easy meals. Easy access to public transport
There were quite a few homeless people in the blocks around the hotel. This is not the fault of the hotel but did detract from staying in this part of the city.
