I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and secluded, but I was moved to a different room which was not what I had booked. The service was a bit judgmental towards couples, making me feel a bit uncomfortable, but overall the staff were friendly. The location was good for exploring trendy areas, but it was a bit far from the Waterfront. The dining experience was pleasant, and the facilities had seen better days.
