Great suite of apartments, well appointed even though a bit on the pricier side. There is only one lift and you'll likely have to wait a while because the cleaners use it in the morning. A minor quibble but they did not stock the fridge with milk.

First the good: secure parking is great and the rooms are a good size. However this place is looking very tired. No maintenance is done, shower head held on with a cable tie. Stained carpets and walls and the bed worn out. Balcony is good but unusable with all the smoking going on. Not a smoke free property. No smart TV for streaming or casting. Location is good but how about a coat of paint and new carpets, for the cost. Absolutely no room service for fresh towels etc unless you stay 7 days. Don’t think I’ll be back. Business trip 3 night stay.

The mattress was terrible… I feel like folding in half by the mattress and you can clearly see the king bed is formed by two singles and they are not leveled! One side is sinking in the middle, makes it impossible to stand up the next morning. I literally couldn’t feel my back after slept in it… Terrible experience won’t recommend.
