I was ok with the stay, the room was spacious and amenities were ok. I liked that there was a microwave in my room as well as the coffee maker and fridge. On the Saturday morning of my stay, there was a fire evacuation but from my room no. 1405, i was completely unaware of the evacuation until i happened to step out of my room to leave for an event and the cleaner had to signal to me that we needed to evacuate. Knowing you dont use lifts, she still called the lift? But we headed to the stairs. Being on the 14th floor was not helpful and i was late to my event. I couldnt stay to see the outcome of the evacuation, but saw all was ok when i returned later that afternoon. No attempt to contact me was made. I saw the fire trucks all leaving later that day.
