Absolutely Amazing stay!

prime location attentive staff quick room service
The location IS prime, especially being so close to the city center. Staff members were attentive. They matched the high standard as soon as I walked through the door. Room service was quick.
The gym could use a little upgrade. Some machines were out of order, and it was quite small for such a large hotel. It was disappointing because I planned to use the gym .
