The staff was kind and friendly, but the noise from the train makes this location a dealbreaker for me. The rooms were subpar for a high end hotel.

Following checkin we went to the room and there was an overwhelming smell of weed. I called reception and they promptly dealt with the issue - coming to meet us in the room with keys for a replacement room. The replacement room was great.
