8/10 Good
"My first review for the first night stating that we didn't get a good sleep coz of the staffs/ housekeeping talking in the hallway. Today was good as not a lot of people left as it's a Monday plus housekeeping came later. The room is nice and modern with balcony we like it. Location is very good just walking distance to museums, art gallery, shops and restaurants (Riverside market) etc. Reception were good too as well as breakfast just basic continental and bacon eggs but good enough for the price."
