Really good Hotel Experience
city view professional staff polite staff great atmosphere
The room had city views from a higher floor (above level 7). The hotel provided ear plugs upon request, a nice touch. I found the staff professional and polite. I appreciated the bar located on the first level. It had a great atmosphere.
I experienced occasional delays waiting for the lifts.

Acceptable stay experience
excellent location friendly staff early closure water issue
The location is excellent. It's within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The staff was friendly (especially Yuki at the front drive).
The rooftop pool closes early at 6pm. This is because it turns into a bar at that time. Water cut out several times (which was inconvenient).

The room had a DARLING harbor view. The location was excellent for walking to Chinatown. It took only ten minutes. The ferry stop was also only a ten minute walk away.
The check-in area was small, and the check-in process seemed SLOW.

really good stay with great service
efficient service unobstructed view rapid response new equipment
The location is superb, and i appreciate the two pools, each with a different perspective. the view of darling harbor is very nice. I think any harbor-view room offers the same unobstructed view. services were very efficient. When i requested pillows, ice, or towels, the response was rapid, and i am very pleased with this. i used the gym, it had new equipment.
i encountered a minor issue with the room's lighting near the desk, which required maneuvering to sit comfortably, but it was a very slight problem.
