“I see it as a budget choice for solo travelers who prioritize location and easy access to transport links. The rooftop bar clearly elevates the experience, offering views rarely found at this price point. Its design is rooted in British fashion-stylish and very central. Yet, given room sizes and limited amenities, I'd suggest it's better suited for shorter stays.”

Excellent Location and Modern Amenities

really good locationmodern fixturesfabulous viewsefficient air conditioning
The location is really good. Many key attractions are within easy walking distance. I found the bathroom to be clean and equipped with modern fixtures. The rooftop bar provided fabulous views of the surrounding area. The air conditioning worked efficiently (a very welcome feature).
The room was a bit small. It lacked bedside tables on both sides of the bed, with the bed pushed against the wall.
Rooms
9/10
The room offered soundproofing that assured a good night's sleep, despite the central location. The bed was very comfortable. The random pink bunny added a quirky touch (which i thought was fun).

Check-in was quick and efficient. I was even allowed to access my room early as it became available. I appreciated the rooftop restaurant (it had fine panoramic views). The staff was friendly and very helpful.

The hotel is in a good location. It is near many attractions. The staff responded to issues quickly. The room and bathroom were clean.
My room did not include tea or coffee facilities. There was no television in my room. Drinks at the rooftop bar seemed expensive for what I got.
