Cold Showers only
One day trip. Not a ton was needed for this stay but the shower is must. First week of December and the shower did not provide hot water. A $400/night stay should definitely include hot water.

Not recommended: zero hot water; couldn’t shower
No hot water. I couldn’t shower bc was cold water at night and in morning. Hotel was clean and beds comfortable. Lounge area has no comfortable chairs to have a cup of coffee. Too many hotel options in the city to have no comfort or hot water. Would not stay again or recommend to others.
