Rooms a place of inspiration.
Neat and well-kept, each room is flooded in natural light, decorated with fresh and vibrant linens and is spick and span. You can expect your room to be a hub of individuality, with the highlight being a gorgeous balcony.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Small rooms with claustrophobic atmosphere.
Don’t be mislead by advertising. Rooms are surprisingly small and previous guests were disappointed to witness this upon arrival. The cramped rooms do not allow space for much but the balcony relieves the lack of space.
negative:
Few options on restaurant menu.
Although the on-site restaurant offers food of great quality, the menu has very limited options and, therefore, not catering to all preferences. If staying for a long period, the menu will get boring and you’d have to revert to nearby restaurants.
negative:
Limited parking inconvenience some.
Although there is allocated parking, it is very limited and a slight distance from the facility. However, due to small amount of bays, a few previous guests have had to park down the street, inconveniencing the unpacking process.
