It had a lovely view and the room was clean. It had good towels and sheets and the pillows were great. but it was hard to get hot water. You really had to wait a long time for the water to get hot and it didn't stay hot long. The WiFi was spotty.

Spotless room. Great bed. Great location. No servicing of the room: no bed makeup, no towels, no coffee refills, although they were available at the office, which is open only for limited hours. I would stay there again.
