    Charming Escape with Vibrant Atmosphere

    I stayed for one night and found the cozy room tastefully decorated. Enjoyed breakfast at a charming cafe nearby, perfect for fueling a day out. The contactless check-in was smooth. Just be prepared for nightlife noise if you're a light sleeper.

    small rooms

    I loved how easy the check-in was with the digital process, and the bed in my room was super comfy for a great night's sleep. I really enjoyed the rooftop pool and the cozy lounge area perfect for unwinding after a busy day. Just a heads up, the rooms are on the smaller side, but it didn’t stop me from having a fantastic stay! 😊

    Super comfy bed and great location. The Garden Level Cozy room was tiny but really well set up. Loved the high ceilings! Nice pourover coffee setup in the room. They have yoga classes in their spa, and bike rentals are available for exploring downtown, which is a big plus. Very modern and clean vibes everywhere.

    Chill vibes and cool decor

    This place is super cute and has a laid-back vibe. It’s right near lots of eateries and shops, which is fab. I was stoked on the handheld steamer in the room—nice touch! Only bummer was the bar next door pumping loud music at night. Dining at the bar/lounge was nice too.

    chic lounge areas
    stunning interior design
    inviting atmosphere
    room comfort
    limited seating

    I really enjoyed the stunning interior design throughout the hotel. The chic lounge areas were perfect for relaxation. The atmosphere felt warm and inviting, thanks to the elegant textures and decor. The location is fantastic, placing you near main shops and bars. The beach. Checking in and out was super easy, which added to my overall comfort. However, the room felt quite cramped for two adults. Limited seating options made it tough to relax in the room. While the size of the room was not a surprise, I wish there had been more comfortable seating available. The bed was pushed against the wall, creating a claustrophobic feel.

    cramped room
    limited space

    During our stay, we enjoyed the incredible interior design and chic lounge areas that made the hotel feel cozy and inviting. The location was perfect, with easy access to nearby restaurants and attractions, making it convenient for us to explore the area. However, the room felt a bit cramped, especially with two large suitcases, and we wished for more comfortable seating options inside the room.
