Excellent City Stay Experience

helpful staff perfect location clean room

The staff went out of their way. They made my little boy a pancake for breakfast. The location is perfect. I found getting around the city very easy. My room was functional and clean. It had all necessary amenities. The hotel is close to major stores and bars. I had a good experience overall.

The hotel has no telephone in the room. I had to use WhatsApp to contact reception. There were no obvious instructions for this in the room. This could be problematic in an emergency or unfamiliar with apps.

convenient location useful desk friendly staff late check-out

The location was convenient. i found the desk space especially useful for my laptop. the staff greeted me with friendly smiles at check-in, which i appreciated. i was grateful for the late check-out at noon. It made my departure much easier.
