a cherished escape
comforting bedcentral locationfriendly staffdisabled air conditioning
the bed felt comforting to me. the hotel had a super central location near cafes. the staff were super friendly and check-in felt smooth. we arrived quite early and i received a room earlier than expected.
the air conditioning was centrally disabled. even though they advertise it, it is turned off in autumn and winter. it was quite warm and it was not possible to air the room properly because it faced the street.
