self check-inscalding waterdigital key
the room was clean and the self check-in was fine.
The shower was a nightmare. I nearly scalded myself because only scalding water came out. the sink was also annoying because a small shelf under the mirror got in my way whenever i tried to brush my teeth. also, (and i hate to say it) the digital key thing felt impersonal.

Fantastic Stay!

high qualitycomfortable bedquiet courtyarddigital key
I found very high-quality products! The bed and pillows were super comfortable! The location could not be better because I was literally on the marketplace, but my room overlooked a courtyard so it was very quiet. I really enjoyed the decor. It was spotlessly clean. I slept in the comfiest bed ever! The hosts communicated greatly, and the room was beautifully decorated with air conditioning, a Nespresso machine, and a kettle.
The digital key felt impersonal! I prefer a human touch when checking in. It makes the experience much more cute! I want a tangible key!
