"The location, staff and the hotel as a whole as exactly what I had hoped for. The meeting room on the 8th floor came in quite handy as I worked US hours. The only thing that could be better is the gym. A little too tight to do much but overall had what I needed. I would most definitely come back. Their entire staff was great!"
