Was very nice but does not warrant the extra $100 per night for the extra stare compared to others in the area. Was a bit of a joke having dripping liquid ice trays that ruined the food we paid a lot for in room service. Also the museum is an Appropriate name as they don’t even have smart tvs with Netflix. A lot of nice touches were completely absent which made the 5th star a bit of BS

We loved our stay! Our room was fantastic, and staff and hotel were super cool. Only a couple of gripes - the mattress wasn’t very comfy, and the Friday night street noise was loud. Would definitely recommend, but ask for a higher floor than 3

We requested a late checkout and the hotel kindly gave us one. It was so much appreciated - however it seems this was not communicated to the Housekeeping Dept as we were disturbed 3 times in the morning by 3 different housekeeping staff knocking on our door and asking when we were leaving. We were trying to rest & sleep after a stressful period recently. Not impressed at all with this part of our stay. The remainder of our stay was great.
