Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel rooms are spacious and modern, including a Nespresso machine, which made our stay comfortable, clean, and enjoyable. However, our room was a bit dark on the 1st floor with no natural sunlight.
The hotel offers moderate-sized rooms, with some lacking natural light but still comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Its location is perfect for exploring the city center. The dining experience could be improved due to ongoing refurbishment. Overall, a decent value for the price.
The hotel rooms, while lacking windows, were spotlessly clean and featured nice complimentary milkshake sachets and daily replenished bottled water. The space was a bit smaller than expected, making it tight for storing luggage. However, the absence of windows and a bidet in the toilet was a downside.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience, with some ups and downs. The location was central and convenient, but the lack of natural light in some rooms could be a downside. The service was friendly, but there were some issues with staff training. The dining options varied from poor to excellent, depending on the refurbishment status, and the facilities were decent overall.
The hotel offers small but comfortable rooms that provide a very comfortable stay. While the rooms may seem a bit compact for the price, the overall experience was lovely and felt cozy.
I had a unique experience staying in this boutique hotel with its lovely art decor rooms. Despite the busy road nearby, the isolation was great. The room was quiet and relaxing, nicely finished, but it could get a bit noisy with cigarette smoke smell at times.
