Good place to stay

Only stayed for one night but the experience was good ,the staff was so friendly and helpful. The room was clean so was the bedding. Although the food was great it is incredibly overpriced ,they would work on that.

The water was absolutely horrible. It was hardly a trickle to take a shower. We were out on a floor with a group of late teen/early 20's soccer/football team that was extremely loud and inconsiderate. Never waste your money!

The hotel itself is unique architecturally. It's very eye catching. Unfortunately it seems like it's on the same level it was at 30 years ago. We tried calling room service several times but we didn't get an answer. Places offering better facilities are more reasonably priced.
