The location was amazing, a short walk from underground stations. the room was spacious and clean, a top-floor delight. i appreciated the cute, helpful, and efficient staff. They provided immediate assistance.
i found the room was pretty much the same as a standard room. i wish i saved some pennies and booked a standard one. the queen bed felt small for the expensive price per night.

Really good Stay Experience

premium bedding convenient coffee maker spacious bathroom dark restful night
the beautiful king bed room featured premium bedding with crisp cotton sheets! i found the proper lavazza coffee maker with ample coffee sachets quite convenient. the bathroom was spacious and included quality hand wash with moisturizer! a large mirror in the airy room and proper curtains ensured a dark, restful night.
The check-in process experienced a slight delay. i arrived at 3 pm, but the room needed inspection, causing a 25-minute wait in the lobby. This was a minor inconvenience.
