No, the balcony was definitely mot scenic, the view it offered was other warehouse roofs and frankly, made me a little uncomfortable. The stove in the roof was difficult to operate We never cooked. Staff, Luke was exceptionally nice. Helpful with things in the area.

Christmas stay

We stayed for five nights and we're supposed to get daily room service as it stated on the booking. We never had our sheets changed or towels we had to ask front deck for Soom more towels. I asked when are we going to have our home serviced and was told it's a holiday boxing day but I paid more for Christmas day and boxing day and didn't get what we had paid for. So feel ripped of
