    What’s an amazing experience! This hotel use to be a phone company and they kept pieces of history throughout. Beautifully decorated, very comfortable and lots of amenities. Terrence roof top bar is eloquently done. No staff seen but truly they make it so you don’t need staff. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back!!
