interesting decor good location easy access loud dj intense vibration unacceptable atmosphere
i loved the interesting decor in the lobby bar, it was very unique. the location near the park was good for walks, i enjoyed that. i found it easy to access the underground from here.
the dj kept me up past 1 am, it was loud. i was on the 2nd floor, the vibrations were intense. i really didn't expect a nightclub atmosphere.
