charming and well-serviced

clean room comfortable bed great service close landmarks
I enjoyed my stay. It was close to notable landmarks. the room was clean and serviced well . the bed was comfortable. It rivaled others i have encountered at various hotels. i enjoyed this short stay..
i noticed the absence of upgrades through hotels.com, and there was no food and beverage discount available. aside from that, the hotel was a pleasant surprise.

the hotel staff, they was kind and helpful .
my room was not up to par. the shower had a design flaw, water constantly splashed onto the floor when in use. this created a hazard, and made it difficult to keep the bathroom clean.

small room marble floor
the staff attitude was acceptable as i expect from a luxury hotel.
i booked a beautiful room, but it was smaller than i thought. also, the bathroom shower was awkward because it had a step up and a marble floor. i consider that an accident waiting happen.
