Great Value and Location
Great location and hotel. It offers both hosel style shared rooms and private rooms and apartments as well.
Only issue I had is that there is no bar open for the majority of the day. Broken Shaker is amazing but doesn’t open till 17:00. With that said seems you can just bring your own drinks in so maybe that’s the option till the bar opens.
