The first thing I noted about the hotel was that the atrium/lobby seemed rather crowded. The reception and concierge are located near the entrance of the hotel near the street but you immediately get the sense that space is at a premium with the hotel restaurant bulging out all the way into the lobby, leaving a less than spacious feeling when checking in and out. The sofa/lounge area is nicely decorated although it too seems to be competing for space inside that seemingly tight main floor. Personally, I would have done away with the lounge area altogether to allow more room for the restaurant and the check in/check out booths.
