Absolutely loved my stay here. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, the location is fantastic, and the whole place has a really fun, stylish vibe. Breakfast being included is a great touch, with plenty of options — I grabbed mine to go, which was super convenient. The complimentary minibar is also a standout, with water, soft drinks and snacks included. The rooms are on the smaller side, so larger suitcases can be a bit of a squeeze for longer stays, but everything is thoughtfully designed and very comfortable. Overall, a fantastic experience — I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.
