Disliked: Amenities
I had a good experience at this hotel. The room was impeccably clean, with fresh linens, spotless surfaces, and a calming, minimalist design that made it feel like a true retreat. Everything was thoughtfully arranged—from the cozy bed to the well-lit workspace—and the air smelled fresh and inviting. The bathroom was equally pristine, stocked with quality toiletries and fluffy towels. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere and how well-maintained everything was. It’s clear the staff takes great pride in keeping the rooms in top condition. Highly recommend for anyone who values cleanliness, comfort, and a peaceful night’s sleep!
