Nice hotel - upscale with great location. Great security, very helpful staff. Breakfast buffet was very lovely as well as rooftop bar and restaurant. Downside was that it was noisy. They had a banquet in the hotel and we could hear percussive music that didn't stop until 12:30 am. Also there was a dangerous doorstop in our bathroom with sharp jagged edges.

I would have liked this hotel if it wasn’t for the extremely rude Porter who started shouting at me for no reason claiming that I had been to pick up my luggage four times when it was completely not true. I went to complain to the reception to tell him off, and they did not do much I do not expect this treatment at a four-star hotel I don’t come to be insulted.
