We went for work and leisure trip. Absolutely worth the price! Location is ideal! Walking distance to the parliament. Food and shopping all walking distance. The service is excellent! Whatever we requested and whenever we requested it was available. They were very helpful. We travel alot n lived in many hotels and this is by far the best! We had the junior suit and they brought in a microwave for us as well upon our request.
