A tourist’s dream come true. Love!
Beautiful rooms. Elevated Moxy vibes. All services at your fingertips via in-room television, including laundry service and concierge doctors. It is also worth noting that this establishment takes security quite seriously, from the exterior gate and security checkpoint to the sliding glass security doors separating elevators from guest rooms.
