I liked the location of the hotel. The room was far from the elevator.

I was not satisfied with my stay. I paid 300 dollars for my room and i was gettung complaints with just 2 people talking and a tv on. The room was tiny as well. I wont ever spend my money going back to this hotel. I paid to have a night out, away from home and my bight was ruined by a crazy lady yelling down the hall at us. And then by the security telling us to yurn down the noise. So we did and it still wasnt enough.

Building is beautiful. Guest room walls are paper thin and at 1:00 AM i had to ask to be moved to a different room due to loud arguing in the room beside mine.

Dear Kross, We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our very special building. I sincerely regret the inconvenience you experienced as a result of the noise from guests occupying nearby rooms, causing disruption to your rest and relaxation. We do have a Quiet Enjoyment Policy to ensure that all of our guests respect the comfort of their fellow guests and our Security Officers do their best to maintain quiet enjoyment, however, it is evident that we failed to do so in this instance. We hope to welcome you back again soon, Sincerely, Marion te Winkel Director of Operations
