I found my stay at the hotel to be quite mixed. On the positive side, the location is superb, right in the heart of downtown near various attractions. The service was friendly and accommodating. However, the room setup was a bit odd with the TV position and lack of essential amenities. The dining experience was satisfactory but could be improved, and the facilities were decent overall.

While the room was clean and comfortable, I found the layout odd with the TV directly to the left of the bed overlooking the roof. It was disappointing that the room was not ready until 4 PM and lacked a refrigerator and safe.
Service
8.0
The service was very friendly, especially at the front desk. However, there was a minor incident where the staff ended our conversation abruptly to discuss their dinner plans. They were courteous and quick to respond to my email regarding an issue that was out of their control.

The hotel's location was perfect for me, being so close to attractions and in the middle of downtown. It worked great for my needs, but I did notice that it was near all the office spaces, with convenient access to restaurants and bars.
Dining

The dining experience was good overall. The seating area was comfortable and clean, but I wished there were more options included in the meal rather than having some items available for an extra charge like the miso soup.

The hotel facilities were satisfactory. The amenities provided were decent but could use some improvements for a more comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. Despite the subpar room I had to settle for upon arrival and some cleanliness issues, the room was equipped with a refrigerator, large TV, and a beautiful view of the River, making it comfortable. The service provided was very friendly and helpful overall. The location was convenient for exploring various attractions within walking distance, although some places were closed due to current situations. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with delightful made-to-order omelets but also below-par meals for the price. The facilities offered were satisfactory, providing the necessary amenities for a pleasant stay.

My stay at the hotel exceeded my expectations in many ways. The room was much more than I expected - it was clean, comfortable, and had a gorgeous view of the waterside district. The service was sweet, accommodating, and professional, ensuring our satisfaction throughout our stay. The location was perfect for my business needs, and the dining experience, although fast and friendly, was a bit sparse. Overall, it was a great experience.
