"Overall, I had a very pleasant stay. The location is excellent, the staff was friendly and welcoming at check-in, and the room was lovel, the bathtub, in particular, was fantastic. A quick tip for future guests: the AC controls are integrated directly into the bedside headboard, which can be tricky to spot at first. My only frustration came after checkout. At arrival, the staff mentioned I was receiving an upgrade. When I entered the room, there was a bottle of champagne on ice, which naturally seemed like part of that upgrade. However, a couple of days after checking out, an unexpected charge appeared on my card, which I assume was for the bottle. Be mindful of in-room items even if an upgrade is offered, but otherwise, it's a solid hotel."
