Fantastic Stay at Boutique Hotel

great locationhelpful staffcomfortable bed
I really appreciate location near tram stops. The lobby provide a cute ambiance. My comfort double room had a modern design, and the room was quite clean. I felt the staff was friendly and professional. The breakfast service had a good variety of foods. The restaurant offered local cuisines. I could walk to nearby attractions without difficulty. I also appreciate them keeping my luggage before check in. I found the honesty bar to be a very convenient feature. The bed was very comfortable and the room was very dark, so i could sleep well. The hotel provided toiletries that i liked.
The room size was not so big.
Dining

The hotel offers a great location near restaurants, a park, and museums. I found it easy to access boat tours and canals. There are good tram connections that go further into the city. The hotel ensured a quiet environment for a restful night's sleep.
The room lacked coffee cups. It also did not include provisions for in-room service. A tea kettle and brewing machine were available. I did get a free cup of coffee in the breakfast bar after I spoke to the receptionist.
