The breakfast menu options was good. The Spa experience was wonderful. The roof top dining experience at alto234 was great with the view within the clouds on the 57th floor. I got a haircut also with Uncle Dee Ventures. There is also good gym there but didn't get to use it. The pool looked lovely but weather conditions didn't allow me to use it.
