comfy bedvibrant lobbypoor showerunavailable fridge
I really liked the big size of my City Studio. The bed was comfy and I slept soundly each night. The hotel has a vibrant lobby with comfy seating. A coffee bar is in the lobby too.
I found the shower to be quite poor. It was hard to move the soap and shower bottles, so I used my own products. Fresh milk was left out for beverages, but there was no fridge for it.
