terrible smellunadjustable heating

I was a bit let down by my stay. the heating was stuck at 25 degrees, i could not adjust it. a terrible smell came from the running heater fan. It practically made staying in the room impossible. i had to open the window, but then it got cold! even after i told the front desk, nothing changed.

Romantic Escape, A Clean and Convenient Stay

prime locationfresh spacecute proseccobreakfast music

The hotel boasts a prime location, removed from heavy tourist traffic. The hotel had fresh, clean spaces with everything within easy reach, I appreciated this convenience. I was greeted with prosecco upon my arrival, a lovely cute touch and felt very special.

The breakfast arrangement felt a little off. Some light background music could enhance the atmosphere there, I believe.

Acceptable Stay. Some Issues Need Attention

small showerinconsistent cleaning

My stay wasn't terrible, but some things could be better. The shower was small. It felt cramped. the cleaning wasn't consistent. I expected more attention to detail given the price.
