The experience was breathtaking with the views of the city. The elevator ride was 52 seconds to 100 floors...pretty amazing!

Look, can I be disappointed going to an observation deck at sundown and it being absolutely packed out? Probably not. It was chocka and it does kind of curb the experience. I thought the coloured lines on the glass were ridiculous. So much space unutilised, so many people that could use that glass space for a great view, and they just look tacky in my personal opinion. I have other favourite observation decks, but it was I did enjoy myself!

Too much crowd, not handled properly. Couldn't able to get the spot for viewing. Waited a lot for other people to leave the spot. Not organised properly.
