Delicious Room Service

I ordered room service for breakfast, and it was very nice! The James Omelette was loaded with flavor, and the Belgian waffles were light and fluffy. Each dish was presented beautifully, making for a good start to my day.

Cozy, High-Quality Bedding

The bed in my room was amazing! It had the perfect balance of firmness and softness, along with luxurious linens that made it hard to get out of bed. I had some of the best sleep I've ever enjoyed at a hotel.

My stay at The James was quite memorable, thanks to the friendly and attentive staff who seemed to genuinely care about my experience. The modern decor and cleanliness of the hotel enhanced my comfort, although the room itself had a somewhat depressing view that didn't let in much light. Overall, the location was perfect for exploring the city, and the value for the amenities provided was impressive, especially considering the free Wi-Fi.
