Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers a vibrant atmosphere with artistic decor and a cozy ambiance that enhances your stay. The location is perfect for exploring the city, while the rooftop bar adds a unique touch to the experience. However, the lack of proper ventilation and housekeeping could use some improvement. Overall, it's a pleasant place to rest your head while enjoying local culture.

However, the service had some inconsistencies that could use improvement, particularly regarding some additional charges initially discussed during my stay. Overall, it was a great experience, but I felt the service could have matched the quality of the ambiance and dining.

However, I did find the Wi-Fi connection a bit frustrating at times, and while the rooms were well-designed, they could use a bit more attention to detail in housekeeping.
