inconsistent water temperaturelimited breakfast
The room lacked proper sound insulation , as street noise was audible throughout the night. The shower temperature fluctuated , proving difficult to maintain a consistent water temperature. The rooftop pool , while visually appealing , was smaller than expected. The limited breakfast selection became monotonous after a few days. The concrete design elements felt cold and uninviting.

Stylish Hotel with Excellent Service

rooftop poolcentral locationdim lighting
The rooftop pool offered wonderful views and a pleasant place to relax. The staff assisted with arranging airport transfers and train tickets prior to my arrival, it was efficient. The hotel's design is beautiful and well maintained. The location is central, with access to nearby shops and restaurants.
The lighting in the room was quite dim, it could be improved with more lights near the working area. I found it a bit dark for reading or working comfortably.

The rooftop features an infinity pool with clear city views. The pool area includes comfortable loungers and a bar serving refreshing beverages. The hotel also has a restaurant on the ground floor that offers a variety of local and international dishes.
