The location is superb. Trams travel all directions from where the hotel is centrally located. Lots of choices in the immediate area, food, pubs, live entertainment, etc.

The location is excellent and the staff is friendly.

I hate being charged for wireless internet when I'm paying $200 a night
to stay there. Other than that, everything was fine.

After having stayed at multiple hotels I choose the American for its great location and atmosphere, I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed my stay. Contrary to some of the major chains like NH I had a working airconditioning, a small balcony and a very quiet room. Great for a quick business trip!

The rooms and nice but show some light wear & tear, a bit small when staying in one room together.
