Great location, friendly staff. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5, the room was small, very little space for luggage & the refrigerator didn’t work.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I loved the hotel’s unique blend of cozy charm and industrial edge—it struck the perfect balance between warmth and modern flair. The atmosphere was effortlessly relaxed, with a genuinely friendly vibe that made it easy to unwind. Its location was a dream: just steps away from vibrant shopping streets and tempting dining spots, and with tour departures conveniently right across the road, it couldn’t have been better positioned for exploring.
