"Very impressive view on the 18th floor with 3 sides floor to ceiling windows. This is the most beautiful view I ever had in a hotel. Room is very comfortable with easy to control room temperature. The shower is very big, good water pressure and hot water. It just leaked a bit on the seam at the bottom. The hotel area is safe but not really safe to walk. On weekdays it's very busy with tons of traffic and very dangerous to cross streets. There are very few cross walks around the building. ...

Machines in the gym seemed a little old and the light at the back of my bed didnt work properly but i wasnt staying in the room much in the evening so ultimately these things did not affect my stay in a significant way. It would have been nice to have a pool in the property like so many hotels in the city do but i suppose you cannot have...

"I enjoyed the service from most of the staff who ensured I was welcomed. Two people in particular that made my stay great was Maria the server at breakfast.

He ensured that I was satisfied with the room I requested and all my recommendations were fulfilled. I will always book my stay at Riande Urban...

"This is an excellent alternative to a traditional hotel or those requiring longer stays and would like a kitchen. Business condo is a good option and has laundry.
