Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was sub-standard, TV channels didn't work, I think I found two which worked, window may as well have been open when closed, so noisy even with it closed. Heating/Cooling didn't work, I turned it off and still had to open the window while sleeping = no sleep at all due to the noise. Plumbing loud, i could hear when people flushed their toilet next door/upstairs. Only one towel provided, bar service disorganisednot amazing, better hotels nearby

Quirky design hotel, well located.

Hotel was well located in the city, plenty of shops and restaurants around, supermarket at the corner and the amphitheatre was just beside it too. Difficult on first entering to see where the reception desk is. Pleasant front desk staff but had to ask for city map. Room big enough and very comfortable bed. No view from window just other walls opposite with windows but overall that's not too important. For some parts design ruled over practicality - the hangers for clothes were quite high up so if you were 5' or under you would not reach. The same for the safe - too high. As for being able to reach the spare pillows etc no chance. Large sink but again things slid down the side into it. Shower design lead to floor flooding every time. The shower gel was extremely watery. The AC did not switch on but luckily were OK weather wise. The towels appeared to be changed everyday even though we hung them up to dry - did not see any mention of re-using them which we would have been happy to do. These were minor issues as the room overall was comfortable. Breakfast was good with plenty of hot and cold options. Lovely cappuccino made to order. The bar man made great caiprinhias. Water flavoured with fruit available at reception as well as a lovely selection of sweets. Would stay here again.
