location good, but rooftop and room issues persist
rude staff small bathroom
i was not happy with my stay. the rooftop area that was advertised was closed for a private event. i found this misleading and staff was rude when i tried to access the area. also, the room was tiny, and the bathroom had little privacy due to its small glass door design.
