The city view rooms, or at least the one I stayed in was very noisy. The traffic noise made it hard to sleep. For the price I had expected double glazed windows

All good to great. Will always be back with them. (P.S : My car got a fresh scratch during the valet return, and hence curious what happened. Was it the basement parking?)
