underwhelming stay

outdated room rough towels
the location was acceptable, since it was close to many attractions.
The room i booked seemed outdated and smaller than expected. i found the bathroom particularly disappointing. The showerhead sprayed water everywhere, and the towels felt rough (not the luxury i anticipated). also, the minibar was empty. I expected more, i was not able to drink something there.

The doormen were helpful upon arrival. Check-in was quick. The family room featured two queen-size beds. The bathroom had a bathtub, and the space was super tidy. Breakfast was AMAZING!!! There was a wide variety of options available.
The shower was a little hard to figure out. The water pressure from the shower was not great. I found it disappointing. There was loud music one night.
