The hotel had elegantly modern rooms with a quasi-Asian/modern style and great views of the surrounding trees. The service was a mix of pleasant greetings and overly aggressive behavior. The location was fantastic for sightseeing and attending nearby events. The dining experience was nice, although the bill included a 20% tip without clarification. Overall, a stylish hotel with some service quirks.
