I can't speak for the other members of my group but my experience was not positive. We stayed here 10 days for work. Wifi is hopeless - I was conducting my online meetings seated on the stairs and the only way I could get my mobile wifi was to hold it above the toilet. Upon arrival I had no bath linnen (easily solved though when I asked for towels, but the receptionist was too busy watching a movie and told me he'd bring them later, so I found them myself) and the rubbish bin contained all manner of food refuse such as fruit and a pizza. ||Despite us staying ten days, the chamber maid refused to clean our rooms or refresh our towels, till on day 5 we insisted. I don't need new sheets every day and I can reuse towels but after 5 days I'd like a clean towel and my coffee cups washed/bin emptied. I also wasn't given new coffee/tea (2 teabags for 10 days?) so I bought my own. I had to rehang the curtains myself as the net curtains and outer curtains were hung on the same rail, and everyone could look into my room, not to mention the light coming in. I also asked for new light bulbs (they didn't work, only the ceiling light) and was told to find some myself in another room (as if I have the key to those rooms). ||Location is great for exploring but terrible for sleep - I got up on average twice a night to ask people in the street to go away. Strangely, the night staff just let very loud groups of drinkers and smokers sit in the street on the hotel front steps all night, every night, so that at 3 am or 6 am, I was the one sending them away. The "No smoking" sign under room 5 is apparently for decorative purposes and as a result I had to keep my windows shut. ||Gorgeous building, fabulous breakfast and the breakfast ladies were lovely.
