Excellent Stay with Great Amenities

convenient location easy facility friendly staff
The location was convenient. I appreciated the new, easy-to-use facilities. That is a relief for travelers. The gym and the swimming pool were definitely pretty. Staff members were friendly and gave clear instructions on check-in and luggage drop off.
They charged a safety deposit at the start. I prefer it to be done after checkout and charge us when something has actually happened.
Facilities
9/10
The gym includes treadmills and stationary bikes for cardio. There are also multiple spas for relaxation, including two outdoor ones (i thought they were great). A sauna and steam room are also available .
Rooms
9/10
The room included a full kitchen, very suitable for longer stays. The smart TV allowed us to watch Netflix. The apartment featured a small balcony (nice addition).

faulty air conditioning cheap towels
the air conditioning in the first room did not function properly, even when set to maximum, the room remained warm. i moved to a smaller room, only to experience the same issue with the air conditioning. the provided towels felt cheap. freeze dried coffee was the only option available.

A wonderful apartment stay!

amazing view floor-to-ceiling windows great wifi quiet neighbors
The view from the 34th floor was amazing with floor-to-ceiling windows. The apartment included every amenity that we needed. The wifi worked great, i was able to stream my favorite shows. The neighbors were super quiet. It was so peaceful.
Some kitchen decor seemed a bit much and the bedside tables attracted fingerprints.
Service

The check-in was seamless, and the staff were friendly. They stored our luggage until the room was ready. Staff promptly addressed a minor issue with the television, which i found VERY helpful.

Although there isn't a restaurant, the fully equipped kitchen allowed me to prepare my own meals. A supermarket was a short walk away. I stocked up and cooked several meals in my apartment.
