Great location where you can walk to the museum district around 5 to 10 mins and to the metro around 3 mins, clean room, friendly staffs and safe for sole trip. You may hear the noise from next room in the early morning, however it’s not a problem for the stay.

Really enjoyed my stay here! It’s located in a quiet area, which was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city. Everything was super clean and recently renovated, giving it a fresh and comfortable vibe. The staff were really nice and helpful throughout my stay. And as a lovely touch, they even gave me a little gift at checkout. Such a thoughtful gesture! Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely small hotel in quiet neighborhood near public transport and museums Very clean. Our double bed room was spacious enough and beds were comfortable. The only issue for us was the steps into our building, which was not easy for those with any mobility issues. We would highly recommend this property

Jackhammer noises and road construction behind the property were added ‘benefits’ that awaited our stay. Since there was no mention of this in any description or communication, and the rate was comparable to other high-end hotels in the area, it was quite an unwelcome surprise. It appeared that half the street had been torn up, with more work continuing throughout the day. We were told the construction had just started, but since we booked the room the day before our arrival, it was hard to believe they didn’t know it was happening. Their remedy was: ‘So sorry, out of our control. All rooms are affected, so it won’t help to move you. We can offer you a beverage or a glass of wine. That’s it. Neither I nor my colleague before me has the authority to offer anything else.’ Moral of the story: ask about the situation before booking. This ‘family-run’ hotel—whatever benefit that’s supposed to imply—might mean you’ll be treated like anything but family.
