Very good location, very nice staff
Pros:

In the ground floor there is 7/11, and across the street there is GS25.
There is a subway station very close to it so it’s very convenient and staff were very friendly, professional and very nice!
Would definitely recommend going there and if I return I’ll probably go back there!

Cons:

Can’t think of something

Pros:

Отель классный, соответствует описанию. Вид на город хороший, локация шикарная в этом районе есть всё в шаговой доступности, ведь отель находится в центре. Завтраки были вкусные, повара и охрана были супер вежливые и милые.
Для своей цены супер!

Cons:

Моё личное мнение: для меня единственный большой минус отеля это поздний заезд в 15:00 и ранний выезд до 11:00. В первый день пребывания нам пришлось доплатить, чтобы заехать в номер раньше положенного.
Затем мне не понравилось то, что в момент заселения и оплаты весь персонал такой вежливый, а стоило нам задержаться на 10 минут в день отъезда, как менеджер отеля начал ломиться в дверь. Это я могу понять, наша вина, что мы не услышали звонки и стук в дверь.
Но когда мы решили продлить пребывание в отеле, я столкнулась с грубым отношением. Сложилось впечатление, что пока ты оплачиваешь проживание, к тебе относятся вежливо, но стоит возникнуть какой-то ситуации, как отношение резко меняется. Нас попросили немедленно съехать, если мы не собираемся оплачивать дополнительные сутки. И дело даже не в самой просьбе, ведь у отеля есть свои правила, а в том, каким тоном всё это было сказано.

Вот что мне не понравилось, а в целом отель стоит того 🙌🏻
