Great location, clean rooms and friendly staff. You can’t go wrong with this location as everything is within walking distance, restaurants bars, anything really. It’s connected to a Beatrix, which has great food and drinks. The only downside are the occasional ambulances nearby but the locationvmakes up for that.

Staff at Beatrix which was the restaurant inside the hotel was rude. $236 for one night for a room, & you don’t even get breakfast. Definitely not high end

The carpet in the room was surprisingly worn. There was one bottle of water that I wasn't sure was left by the hotel or the previous occupant. One of the channels on the TV didn't come in even though it was on the guide (We didn't spend a lot of time in the room but we did want to relax at night watching some TV. The room was much smaller than anticipated but it is called "Aloft", it was a loft area.
