adequate stay

good staff reception complimentary drinks snacks dyson hair dryer dark room feeling lukewarm shower temperature shower design issue
the hotel is very well designed. the staff and reception were also very good. we especially liked the complimentary drinks and snacks in the minibar.. they refilled it each day. the dyson hair dryer and ghd hair straightener were a plus.
our room felt dark. it was like a mole's habitat because of the limited natural light. the shower was lukewarm during our second time.

stylish stay

corner room modern lounge
the location was superb near the train station. the interior design created a gorgeous setting in the corner room. i found the lounge on the top floor to be modern and cute. the staff assisted me kindly with directions.
i noticed my room felt a bit dark. it had limited natural light due to the small window facing a narrow space. this made the room less inviting during the day.
