"Great location, but checking in after hours and on Sunday, was not straightforward. The reception is not at the advertised address, and you need a swipe card to get into the foyer. Fine print shows a different address, an adjacent street up three flights of stairs, to find a door with an intercom to page someone. From there, it was easy."
