Pros:

Lokalizacja super, czysty hotel. Trochę skromne śniadanie,

Cons:

Cena parkingu. Goście nie mieli żadnej obniżki ceny. Koszt taki jak dla osób nie będących gościem hotelowym.

The Intercontinental was much better
Pros:

Room was very small with a console type thing with a TV on it located in the middle of the small room. Took up a lot of valuable space.

Cons:

No Valet parking

A decent stay in a fantastic location, but the high cost, expensive parking, and small service issue
Pros:

The room met our expectations, and we had no issues during our stay. The location was great, right on the Wharf, with plenty of things nearby and a convenient setting for exploring the area.

Cons:

For the price, the hotel was somewhat disappointing in terms of overall value. Parking was extremely expensive, and there was no water provided on the property, so we had to go to the bar just to get cups of water. Additionally, the elevators to both the parking area and guest rooms sometimes smelled strongly of vomit and urine; while I understand elevators are shared facilities, the hotel should make sure guests' first experience isn't walking into a smelly elevator.

A nice one night stay that I would do again and again.
Pros:

This is my second time staying here and I love everything about this place. From the elevators going straight to your floor to the clean rooms and hallways.

Cons:

My only issue was the shower and the fact that the shower head was 50 million feet high, the water wasn't really hot and the pressure was weak.
