The JW Marriott is a top-notch choice. The rooms are spacious and very clean, but a few cleanliness issues took away from the experience. The service is pleasant and helpful overall, but there was a minor incident with missing change. Its ideal location and comfortable amenities make it a first-class facility, perfect for various purposes. Dining was not up to par, especially at the six one six restaurant, but the Chinese food was appealing. Overall, my stay was enjoyable with some minor hiccups.

The hotel had an awesome view from the 12th floor, but the room was small and not worth the price. Check-in was a bit delayed as they needed to text us for the room key after payment.

The food was the best ever, especially the breakfast buffet with a world-class omelette crafted by Elvis the chef. However, the dining experience was better on Sundays than on Mondays.
