Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a great location, near restaurants and major downtown sites. The rooms are comfortable with a sparkling bathroom, but the nearby beer garden can be too noisy on Saturday nights. The service stands out despite its lack of hospitality. The breakfast includes local organic products, and the facilities are top-notch.
The hotel is ideally situated, very close to restaurants in the Spot and activities we were attending. The rooms are equipped with very comfortable beds, sparkling bathrooms, and offer a lovely view. However, the service, though not in hospitality, could have been improved. The location is convenient, being very close to the light rail, but the dining options were limited despite the crisp salads. Pricing was fair considering the overall experience.
The hotel offers a comfortable stay with spacious and sparkling rooms that provide lovely views. The service is exceptional, but the dining options are limited. The location is perfect for exploring the nearby cafes and major downtown sites. The Italian dishes offered are a highlight, while the facilities are top-notch for a pleasant stay.
