High Floor ending in 21 - BEST view of the city

Make sure to get a room ending in 21!! We were on the 9th floor (room 9021), and it has THE most spectacular view of the city. Our only complaint is that the bathroom has no counter space, but for that view, it works!! Very reasonably priced, a great location, and excellent service.

Great hotel with nice clean rooms and great service, don’t drive if you have a 4wd there is no parking options over 2.1m anywhere near the hotel but other then that was a great stay! I left the do not disturb on the door so they didn’t clean my room but they were thoughtful enough to leave a bag of towels and fresh toiletries at the door!
