Fantastic Boutique Stay!

central locationwell-equipped designcomfy bedswarm water bottle

I adored the central location. It placed me right next to great restaurants and shops! The room had ample space, a well-equipped design and comfy beds. Breakfast was a delight, with many hot options available from the menu. I greatly appreciated the attention to detail, such as the warm water bottle placed in my bed during dinner.

The music from a nearby club was audible in my room until the early morning hours. Bring earplugs!

i was impressed by the neutral decor in the room. comfy pillows and sofas provided a relaxing atmosphere. i had beautiful sea views from my room, a plus because lots of natural light entered. a fireplace created a cozy ambiance.

the circuitry of the fan heater was faulty. it required attention late at night, inconvenient. i think they should fix it soon.
