Overall a wonderful place to stay with very friendly staff 😊
Pros:

The bed was very comfortable. The view was excellent. The location was perfect!

Cons:

The light on the air conditioner control was so bright, it fully lit up the room when we were trying to sleep. I ended up covering it with a bandaid. Also, You can see through the frosted glass into the bathroom.

Our second visit and well worth coming back
Pros:

Fabulous location directly on the historic waterfront but so quiet inside. Our loft studio was very spacious with the most comfortable bed and pillows of our trip.

Cons:

There is very little natural light in the bedroom which made it hard for us to sleep. Some blinds open but only onto the very bright atrium outside.

A hotel we would choose to stay at again
Pros:

Excellent location, hotel with great facilities and art, very comfortable room and extremely friendly staff.

Cons:

Nothing really, except that the bathrooms must have been designed as a tribute to the very short people that existed in the 19th Century or perhaps by a short architect. Basin, bench top and mirror would suit vertically challenged people very well!
