“I see a commitment to modern design, with bright rooms and high-end amenities; the rooftop restaurant's panoramic views promise memorable dining. However, reports of service inconsistencies, especially regarding the rooftop bar access, give me pause. This property has potential, but needs a more consistent guest experience.”
