I arrived at the hotel after hours but didn't have prior knowledge that I needed to have called up before gaining access into the hotel. That was a very unpleasant experience.

Pros:

Perfect location close to transport, cafes, hidey hole bars, restaurants and shopping.

No driveway for taxis and no concierge on ground floor for security. Elevator floor system was frustrating and needs more explanation at check in.
