Impressive!
Facilities and staff are first class whether it's the doorman/valet, front desk, coffee shop employees or housekeeping. Decor styling is very modern and sets itself apart from most other hotels. Everything was spotless including the suites, lobby, lounge area et al. I have stayed in several other Alexandria hotels in the past but this is my new go to hotel when visiting.
