helpful staffrooftop drinkfine viewsthin walls

I loved the staff. They walked us through the hotel. after a day of sightseeing, they brought us a drink to the rooftop terrace. we had the whole rooftop to ourselves, with fine night views. it was a wonderful experience all around.

the walls seemed a little thin, so noise from adjacent rooms was sometimes noticeable. perhaps thicker insulation would improve soundproofing for quieter days.
