excellent experience
attentive staffheated seatcreative themegreat cocktails
I found the staff attentive. They assisted with directions and provided helpful recommendations. the room was super clean, and i especially liked the heated toilet seat! the hotel's decor is creatively themed, with cool, subtle detective-inspired touches. i enjoyed the drinks at the bar and speakeasy. The bartenders made great cocktails.
The room, though well-appointed, was a bit smaller than i anticipated. Navigating around with luggage was slightly difficult.

The breakfast buffet includes a variety of options, such as eggs benedict, and a traditional english breakfast. Both were delicious! the bar offered a wide selection of drinks in a relaxed atmosphere, and the drinks were perfectly made.

The hotel incorporates a detective theme through unique design elements, such as dog head handrails in the elevator and a mustache bottle opener in the rooms, this gave the hotel character. secret rooms are hidden near the lobby. I enjoyed exploring them.

the location was reasonably good and the breakfast staff were excellent.
I was disappointed with the room. the tv didn't work for four days. it was annoying. there were no tissues available, only toilet paper, and there was only one garbage can for the entire suite. the coffee provided in the room was decaf only. Caffeinated coffee wasn't complimentary in the lobby either.

The breakfast had a wonderful selection. The staff named muhammed was very attentive and realized what I liked before I even asked. Nothing was too much for the staff from reception to the bar staff.
The bed wasn't very comfy. THE receptionist wasn't the politest at check-in but maybe she was having a bad day. I don't really have much else to write.
