Executive suite #2108

Orginally i had booked a "King Premium with Lounge" room,
due to RA,
this was upgraded into an Executive suite.



Located on level 21,
It faces South Main Street and sunrise of the east.
This suite has a microwave, it comes only with a shower and has no bath.
Brand standard amenities are Byredo Bal d'Afrique.
A physical pleasant roomy suite with neat and clean furnishings. (Slightly plain Jane in colours though)
Interesting quirk: the bedside lamp have USB-A outlets to charge ... (i want one of those!)



Location of the room
Facing east and South Main Street






Interesting to see the rack rate at max!





Entry into the executive suite
Complete with microwave





Closet space next to suite entrance




Nespresso capsule machine - water replenished daily if one has requested daily housekeeping





Empty minibar to stock your own stuff in





Living area





View from living area





Bedroom: the two bedside lamps have 2x USB-A outlets





Bedroom comes with a desk and 2nd TV





Bedroom has a closet




Single vanity area : all clean





This suite has a shower only : pressure excellent and heat regulation is easy





View from the bedroom


Themajor niggle though that this suite had this continious humming sound at night verberating from the rooftop HVAC and exhaust fans..... We met another couple whom had the same experience as their room was closeby .....

The noise,
it was exactly as ellyrambo described !

I bet this room is normally given to the deaf or hard hearing because the noise made all of Joan of Arc's voices mute ....

We asked for a room change ..... the same type of room wasn't readily available but i pleaded to forgo formalities of the RA- upgrade and settle for anything else .... even going so far to state i have no calms about being allocated the orginal room that i booked .....

We were given as alternative a "TWIN double bed Premium + sofabed with lounge" on floor 14 (all other KING rooms were not ready yet at 06.00 AM) as this was close to my own personal superior suite on level 14.

Thanks Tomas of the graveyard night reception shift for helping us look through the room inventory to find a suitable alternative .
