A seriously disappointing experience
Based on the advice of a friend whose advice I trust, I picked this hotel for a 10 night stay on the basis of its location. I wanted this trip to be special, so I booked a superior rather than a standard room because I really wanted a view, as promised.
First thing: no view. There is scaffolding across the entire building, so the only view is plywood. I was really disappointed, but also concerned about noise. I was promised that the scaffolding was for maintenance only, and that there would be no noise. I was awakened Monday morning by very loud drilling a few feet from my pillow.
I asked if there was a weekly rate for in-room Internet, and was told there was as not. Actually, it didn't matter, because it turns out that in-room Internet isn't available in my room at any price because "the staff can't make the connector work."
Also, one of four (too few) elevators has been out of service for two days, the furniture is stained and the carpets are threadbare.
I will never come near this place again, but I can see how it could be OK after the construction is done and if you don't care about the Internet.
