limited menuparking inconvenience
I found the lack of parking to be quite inconvenient. having to search for a spot on nearby streets was a bit of a nuisance, especially with luggage. also, the room service menu was rather limited. I expected more variety considering the hotel's reputation.

minor issues During stay

The room itself was adequate, but lacked any nice features. Getting clean towels proved problematic. I had to request them twice. THE most significant issue was a noticeable sewage smell in my room. I informed the staff upon check-out.
