Great location but not the comfortable stay it could have been.
Pros:

This hotel has a great location and has a comfortable room. It is located in the heart of a wonderful city. The hotel’s greatest feature is the 24 hour cafe next door and the amazing frozen lemonade’s. But that of course is not the hotel at all.
The hotel has a small pool which was clean and nice.

Cons:

This hotel charges like a modern city hotel. But modern hotels supply things to make guests comfortable. No refrigerator, no kettle - the cafe next door becomes very important to get a cold or hot drink. There is no air conditioning in the hallways. You walk out of your room into a sauna every time you leave your room. The wifi does not work in the rooms (at least on the 7th floor). So it’s out of your room into the hallway sauna, down 7 floors to access the wifi in the lobby. No towels are provided at the pool. Not good enough for the price, and not in keeping with a modern city hotel.
