Great location and interior design! The room is very clean and bathroom/shower/vanity locations are convenient. The stuffs are friendly and helpful which gave us 3 hours early check-in and 2 hours late checkout. We didn’t try the restaurant but it looks nice. The welcome drinks are nice but wish they could have complimentary coffee every morning :-)

Very nice hotel with spacious rooms, good beds, a nice view. The hotel pool had a nice view, was never busy, and had a nice bar. It took 10 minutes to walk to the nearest hop on hop off location and we were central to some of the main tourist attractions, taking 10 to 30 minutes to walk to each. The breakfast was really good and well worth the cost.
