    very nice breakfast
    spacious room
    leaking shower
    minor inconvenience

    The breakfast was 🍽️ very nice, especially those croissants! Plus, the spacious room added to a really enjoyable stay. Just a bummer about the shower leaking onto the floor.

    stylish room
    complimentary treats
    delicious breakfast
    noisy courtyard
    limited seating

    The stylish room exuded charm, and the generous complimentary treats like fresh apples and drinks. Plus, the breakfast was a highlight with an array of delicious local selections.

    Noisy courtyard at times.

    thoughtful service
    awkward shower design

    Breakfast surprise for a birthday!

    Waking up to the good aroma of fresh pastries was a treat. The team surprised us with a birthday cake at breakfast, showing their attention to detail and care!

    While the room was comfortable, I found the shower design a bit awkward, as water leaked onto the floor. A slight maintenance touch-up would make it perfect.

    complimentary drinks station
    good breakfast
    cozy lobby
    nighttime noise

    Ope, the complimentary drinks station on each floor was a lifesaver, keepin' us refreshed all day! The breakfast was good, with scrumptious croissants that put any Parisian bakery to shame. Loved the vibe of the lobby, it reminded me of a cozy art gallery. Oh, and that hairdryer? Best I've ever used! We felt pampered!

    breakfast issue

    The spacious Cozy Room featured an comfortable bed and lovely toiletries. Although the service was generally helpful, it was sometimes a bit slow during breakfast. The location is perfect, right by a tram stop.

    friendly staff

    Couple's stylish getaway

    The staff were friendly and helpful! They went out of their way to, giving me a complimentary transportation pass for the entire city. The coffee machines and water stations on each floor really helped keep me refreshed.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but for what you get, it's still reasonable.
