Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel exceeded my expectations considerably. The rooms were bright, stylish, and very well-equipped, with a comfy bed, mini kitchen corner, and a desk. The service was full of good vibes, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a great experience. The location was not in the center of everything but still convenient for exploring, and the restaurant offered amazing French breads and pastries to enjoy. Overall, a fantastic stay with a few minor cons to consider.
The hotel is conveniently located in a residential neighborhood, just a short walk from the metro station, offering a comfortable stay with trendy room decor and a cool yet unpretentious atmosphere. The dining options are diverse and satisfying, providing a pleasant surprise, though the distance from major attractions might be a drawback.
The hotel had stylish and comfortable rooms with great amenities like Apple TV for free movies, but the bar/restaurant area could get noisy on weekends. It's slightly out of the city center, but the young and welcoming staff make up for it.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with fun design additions, but it is a bit off the beaten track. The service is friendly and full of good vibes, although some amenities may come with an extra cost. The location is convenient and not too far from the city center. The dining options are decent, and the hotel provides a good alternative for breakfast at a lower price.
