    The elevator was broken for most of the stay. Other than that the staff were very attentive and they made our stay very good by providing room service so we would not have to walk stairs.

    Breakfast is very good and the hotel takes individual interests to prepare customized breakfast. The room is spacious, neat and quite. The view isn't waterfront and that is because of my booking.
