Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing stay at the hotel. The rooms were quiet, spacious, and clean, and I loved that I could enjoy a cocktail after a long day of sightseeing. However, my room was positioned under the stairs and next to a broom closet, which was a bit of a downside.
The hotel boasts spacious and clean rooms with a wide variety of breakfast options, though the dining area lacks privacy. The helpful and communicative service offers a 'wow' moment upon room reveal, but laundry service may be a downside. Its excellent location provides easy access to major attractions, while the dark courtyard view is a drawback.
