Leider war das Studio deutlich kleiner, als ich es mir vorgestellt hatte. Das ausgeklappte Sofa nahm praktisch die Hälfte des Wohnraums ein, sodass nur sehr wenig Platz zum Bewegen blieb. Außerdem war das Sofa als Bett ziemlich unbequem, insbesondere für einen längeren Aufenthalt. Ein weiterer Minuspunkt war das Fenster: Statt einer schönen...

"Amazing location! Very close to bars and restaurants without needing an Uber. The shower needed a little work as it kept flooding the room. The building is old but the room is modern and lovely. Quiet neighborhood Helpful front desk staff No elevator (not an issue for us but you need to know) Reasonable rates for the amenities and location."

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed here for business travel and it was a wonderful experience. The location is great because it is in the city center. Most things are within walking distance. The rooms are definitely on the smaller side, but I was able to make it work. The pool is small but the views from the rooftop bar was great as well. A slight warning: the hotel is tucked away and isn't really visible from the street. We had to circle back before we found where it was, but after that, there was no issue. The breakfast was the best I've had at any hotel. Lots of options and everything was very fresh. Mario, the waiter was really friendly and attentive and made sure we always had what we needed. The coffee was also really good. Aida at the front desk was wonderful as well. She gave us many recommendations on places to visit, and also gave us opinions/more details on places that we picked ourselves. She also told us about a famous pizza place where she had the best pizza ever. We were unfortunately unable to go there as we didn't have time, but it's nice having recommendations that we would have otherwise not even found. Would absolutely consider staying here again."
