Overnight stay

Overnight stay. Very tiny room. We had to share with next room for kitchen. Price is steep and they treat me like it’s hostel where we need to share kitchen. Very slow check in process. Bathroom is glass door and can see everything through. May be tricky if you share room with friends instead of your partner.

Nice design and layout. Rooms are small but cosy, modern, and well furnished. The shared spaces are cool and give a bit of a hostel vibe. Location is great, and close to many dining options. The parking can be a bit tricky to find at first, as it's not on the same street as the hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
