The hotel rooms are cosy, comfortable, and the underfloor heating in the bathrooms provides great morning wake-ups when you're feeling a little chilly. The staff is amazing and very attentive, ready to assist with any needs. The location is excellent for exploring the city, although some noise from a nearby night club can be a minor disturbance. The dining experience offers a variety of options but might fall short of some expectations.

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The rooms were spotless and the shower and bathroom were excellent, just like in another hotel room, all for the same money. The service wasn't all that friendly or helpful, despite the city buzzing with excitement. However, every aspect from room service to housekeeping and even the shuttle service was perfect. The location is super central, right next to Bus Stop 7 for tour pick-ups, and offers easy access to all the shops, restaurants, and bars you'll want to visit. The dining experience was delicious, and the quality breakfast was a great way to start the day.
