My first impression was how up to date the hotel was, it was clean and bright. Having the TWH Social right down stairs was so convenient for breakfast. As well as a late night drink. The bathroom was roomy for both of us. I really appreciated the women at the front desk getting us a Taxi. Great experience

Stayed for one night. Front desk staff were really friendly, helpful, and great with our toddler. Our room was very clean, well-cooled with AC and had enough space for a foldout crib. Quiet during the night despite a wedding party taking place a couple of floors below. Would stay here again and recommend.
