Overall the place was great! Only HUGE downfall was that due to the “winter season” there’s no A/C in the rooms, you have 3 options 1. heat it up 2. Go with the vent… basically the same as option 1 or 3. Open the window… which translates to: noise (sirens) and or light since the amazing blackouts would prevent the air from flowing. We stayed 2 nights and since we had stayed before we were expecting the same experience… you would expect that due to the low temps the rooms would be chilly but you would be wrong. This would be the truly only down side, the rest is simply AMAZING, clean, excellent location, good food, good room service, awesome roof top, a win if you don’t mind the temps

We selected a higher room and got a fantastic view from the 15th floor. Breakfast was good and well organised (it's a BIG hotel). The view from the rooftop bar is excellent.
