Conveniently located for a business traveler this is a chic yet cozy hotel. Excellent service - the staff went an extra mole to get my suit pressed when I had little time - turned around in three hours!

The "Urban" room has an "aquarium" bathroom opening into the bedroom space. From every point the design is very pleasing, so that bathroom visibility expands the visually interesting space, and does not clutter the perception. If it bothers you, pull the curtain over the glass bathroom wall. The toilet is in it's own room so that is not an issue either. The bathroom is very spacious and has both a roomy shower with a rain showerhead and a deep soaking tub - perfect for couples with differing tastes.

The desk is well positioned by the window. Easy to access utility and USB power outlets are above and to the side of the desk, so that cables do not clutter the surface. Rotunda ceiling light above the bed is a genius solution.

The free portion of the bar is just OK, but there is an excellent choice of teas and a French Press for coffee (grounds provided). A horizontal in-drawer safe is in the same closet, very nice for storing a laptop. The way it is positioned makes it much simpler to see what is inside.

Great choice of shoe-care, including shoe-trees - a nice uncommon touch. Also uncommon is that you get a space for an iron board with a convenient outlet.

A couple minor issues, like wires popping from the iron cord, the very squeaky coat closet doors, and wooden floor scratched by the chair without coasters do not spoil the overall pleasant experience.
