The hype
Travelers are obsessed with the aesthetics and the staff's warmth, but the noise from the street is a frequent dealbreaker for light sleepers.

Reality check
The 'Atrium' rooms are often a shock to guests who didn't realize they would be looking into a hallway rather than the city.
- You appreciate Wes Anderson-level interior design
- You are a foodie looking for high-quality buffet and speakeasy vibes
- You are traveling with a pet (the VIP 'Very Important Pet' program is legit)

שאלות נפוצות וטיפים נסתרים
