Positive Reviews
positive:
Agreeable setting is convenient and engaging
A significant number of travellers have been bowled over by the location of this property. As well as being set in a very engaging, and still relatively traditional neighbourhood, this hotel has a metro station right next door, thereby making travel to other parts of the city very convenient indeed.
positive:
Check-in/out process is very quick
If you're someone who normally gets worked up just thinking about the inescapable hassle of checking-in then you'll be in your element here. Numerous visitors have been bowled over by the speed with which they were processed upon arrival.
positive:
Some spectacular views on hand
A great many guests have been blown away by the spectacular views from the upper floors of this colossal, 32-storied tower. Evidently, the vistas of the harbour area from here are pretty special, particularly at night.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Breakfast isn't the best
Many guests have been less than enthusiastic about the hotel's breakfast offerings. Fortunately, there are lots of alternative options located very close by, including a cute little dim-sum cafe just along the street.
negative:
Guest rooms are incredibly compact
It has to be said that the vast majority of guests who've stayed here haven't had many positive things to say about the size of the guest rooms. Clearly, the accommodations at this hotel aren't the kind that encourage you to spread out and relax!
negative:
Beds aren't so comfy
Very few guests have been impressed by the hard, solid mattresses on the guest room beds. Soft and supple they most definitely are not!
