adequate stay

modern design local dining inconvenient tap single mattresses

the hotel room featured modern design with minimalist decor. the staff made excellent local dining recommendations and even made reservations for us.

i felt the basin tap was too close to the bottom of the basin. the mattress seemed pieced together from 2 single mattresses.

artistic stay

beautiful size delicious breakfast quiet street easy distance

i found the rooms beautifully appointed and of a nice size. the breakfasts were both beautiful and delicious. the hotel is situated on a quiet street. i appreciated the easy walking distance to many amenities and sites.

during my stay, i noticed that the air conditioning vents blow directly onto the bed. this made it somewhat uncomfortable to use while sleeping.

Good hotel, but some drawbacks

spacious room beautiful decoration hotel products poor service unacceptable cleanliness dirty glass

I found the room spacious and beautifully decorated. Products developed specially for the hotel are a charming touch. The breakfast in the room came as a surprise, it was different each day.

The hotel has an very nice design, the rooms are spacious and well-organized. it is not a five-star hotel, starting with the service. Cleanliness was unacceptable, for four days, dirty glasses were left in the room until I called to complain.
