Poor service, not at all 5 stars, not one person offered to help bring bags to the room after arriving or at check in. Many amenities were missing from the room including a hair dryer. Fire alarm was going off during stay as well. Elevators were disgusting and smelled of smoke. Regret booking this hotel very much, not at all worth the price and will not be returning or recommending.

We stay in one of the rooms has garden views. The location is great, close to all the major attractions. However, the train noise doesn’t stop until midnight, I found it very difficult to sleep.
