Happy to stay here.
Somewhat unusual hotel but we enjoyed it. Staff are friendly and they have a free bar. Its conveniently located and designed for adults not families with children as they clearly advertize. We were happy to stay here and would again.

My experience of this hotel was phenomenal. Great location absolute absolutely fabulous staff. My first night there Tatiana had me sit down on one of the lovely sofas and brought me a glass of wine and we finished checking in. Everybody was so helpful and so friendly and upbeat. A very safe place to stay as a solo female traveler. I would definitely stay here again.
