The hotel street was blocked off by the police for a protest but the staff were waiting by the blockade to assist with luggage and made our visit so convenient and safe. A perk was that snacks and some beverages were complimentary! Breakfast was amazing and the view added to the ambiance. Will definitely stay here again!
