Nice lobby and good views in some rooms
Decent continental breakfast reported by several guests

Categories

Cleanliness
4.5
Multiple reports of poor cleaning: bad smell, shower drain blocked with hair, inconsistent housekeeping and missed replenishment (toilet paper), and overall room/bathroom cleanliness below expectation.
Service
8
Mixed but with notable positives: several guests praised friendly/helpful front desk staff and overtime effort, though others reported unfriendly or inexperienced staff and slow room service; overall leans positive due to repeated mentions of helpful front desk.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised across reviews: central/downtown, walking distance to restaurants and malls, close to train and attractions — a clear strength for most guests.
Room Quality
5
Frequent complaints about very small rooms, noise (rooms near elevators), dated building features, occasional broken A/C and no hot water for some guests — room comfort is below average.
Amenities
8
Mixed mentions: decent lobby and continental breakfast service in places, but negatives around paid/poor parking (distance and lack of surveillance) and slow/old elevators; overall serviceable amenities with room for improvement.
Value for Money
3.8
Repeated comments that the hotel is overpriced for what it offers; many guests described it as expensive with poor value (e.g., '$500 a day' remark, not matching price to room size/quality).
Food and Beverage
7.6
Mixed but generally acceptable: some guests praised a well-catered continental breakfast, while others found the buffet limited; overall food service is adequate but not outstanding.
Overall Experience
8
Overall a mixed stay: strong positives for location and some staff, offset by cleanliness, small/noisy rooms and poor value. Many guests felt the hotel location made the stay worthwhile despite other issues.

The staff were not that friendly. They didn’t give clear instruction which elevator to take since the 22th floor has two
Pros:

Location

Cons:

It has a bad smell and the shower drain was not working. I had to remove all the hair that was obstructing the drainage. The house keeping should have check it every time the costumers leave.

Bad room to stay in. Hotel is a good location
Pros:

The hotel lobby was nice. Location was great.

Cons:

The room is very tiny hard to move around. We were across from the elevator and must’ve been the elevator room because we heard wheels rolling all night kept us up. We got maybe 2 to 3 hours of sleep. I asked for the room to be discounted due to this and was informed they could not.

Für den Preis hätte ich mehr erwartet.
