We booked 3 rooms, and for all 3 rooms we selected a higher catagory with "view" added. For a 40-floor hotel, then I am expecting floor 15+ to experience a view in any direction.
We got installed in the second floor, supposedly rooms with a view are "subject to availability" and the rooms with view are towards the street. As this hotel is situacted next to an 8-lane highway, a 2nd floor "view" is nothing else than cars, cars and cars.
We were able to get one room moved to the 17th floor.
DON'T SELL ROOMS WITH A VIEW, IF THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE.
Overall the hotel was excellent, staff was (mostly) friendly and very servicable. Special thanks to the concierge who helped us out on anything we needed for activities.
But everything is dragged down by the fact that we got installed on the second floor.
