The welcome drink was a nice touch however the mattress was not comfortable due to softness/compression from wear and tear.

Pros:

This hotel was super clean, and in a great location. It is pretty much walking distance from the main area. The service and staff was amazing. However, it was just a little loud at night due to the noise coming from outside. Other than that, the hotel was a great choice. My favorite spot was the terrace on floor 6. Amazing view.
