On two occasions I ordered poached eggs and they took a while to arrive. They were also cold which is very disappointing. I also had to wait for coffee to be served even though the waiting staff take the order as soon as they sit you down.

Jason, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was clean and bed was comfortable, but they need a chair or real couch instead of the uncomfortable half couch abomination that’s in there. View was excellent. Breakfast was excellent, but pricey. I thought the dinner was average. Close to public transport and the area is walkable. Staff was awesome and always available to help. The hotel itself is probably a little above average, but the staff is what pushes the rating higher.
