Stayed here while visiting family and while the location was prime, I feel like the rooms themselves were dated and could use a bit of a lift. When we walked in our room heavily smelled like mens cologne. We were given just two towels, a practice I notice a lot of European hotels are using - I wish 3 was the standard. The check in process took a bit with a long line and the bathroom in the lobby requires a card that only one person can have access to at a time. The beds and pillows were comfy but you could see the room needed a little bit more TLC in terms of cleaning. We used the hotel bar once and the service took forever- we sat for 45 minutes waiting for drinks to arrive and they were so expensive too. I dont think this is a bad spot by any means but this was not my favorite hotel I stayed in during 2025.
