Totally Loved This Place!

modern hotelclean lobbyipad controlcomfortable space

This hotel is modern plus very clean. The lobby has two awesome living areas with lots of seating and TVs where people gather. The rooms are very clean plus modern with an iPad controlling most things. The room's space can easily fit one person or two if they do not mind a small squeeze.

The check-in staff held my passport open while talking to other guests plus gossiping with colleagues. This felt very unprofessional because it is an important document. The checkout lady seemed annoyed when I asked to leave my luggage.

the check-in and check-out processes were seamless. the staff seemed friendly. i also found it convenient to easily order food from the bar and restaurant downstairs.

the room felt quite small. the bed seemed too close to the walls, requiring climbing over to get in and out. i also noticed the absence of a coffee maker, which i would have appreciated.
