 I read other reviews and they all said the same thing this is not a 5 hotel I decided to judge for myself After a weekend stay I agree The welcome wasn t 5 nor was the overall service There were 2 staff members on the desk and that s all we saw They were polite which was nice but for over 200 a night I was expecting more We were shown to our rooms but no help with luggage etc We got to our room which was very clean and impressive Something that we weren t told beforehand nor upon arrival is that there is scaffolding up around the hotel exterior for the duration of our stay This was a bit annoying as the view is something that made me book this hotel There were no tea or coffee facilities either If this was advertised as a 3 hotel at a 3 price I d be over the moon It was however a 3 hotel at a 5 price I don t really write reviews but I felt this may be of some use to future guests if you re looking for a 5 hotel at a 5 price go with the big names That s what I think I ll do But hey it s only my opinion 
 We loved the location Central to everything and a quick easy walk to the metro and simple for taxis to find The vintage look of the room was quite nice also
