10/10 Excellent
"Staff members were friendly and attentive. The room was large and very comfortable as was the king sized bed but found the washroom on the small side. Would have liked more counter space for toiletries, especially when staying for 3 nights. The air conditioner was a bit noisy. Parking at the hotel was expensive but convenient with in/out privileges. Appreciated in-room Nespresso maker with real cream in the fridge. Location was great, enjoyed spending time in the Public Garden which is just across the road and walking to restaurants and the waterfront. We had a nice stay."
