Good buuuut..
Pros:

Room size, bassinet for baby, distance to the main attractions.

Cons:

The room costs in average usd 100 more than advertised for a weekend because you HAVE to pay with the credit card (no debit or prepaid accepted) which means additional fees and bad fx currencies. This is not disclosed anywhere!

Pros:

- location
- judging from the reviews the industrial/loft/warehouse vibe is hated by many but i liked it esp. the pendant lights in wrought iron (?) cases
- lounge & bar in the lobby were very quirky and cute
- the tea blend with a grapefruit flavour (available at the front desk)

Cons:

- tea (& electric kettle) only available on request at the front desk unlike the coffee
- shower with only a partially frosted glass screen
