Solo Experience Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay was overall very good! The room felt a little warm at times, but we really appreciated that they provided a fan, which helped a lot. The only areas for improvement would be housekeeping. We noticed a few wall stains near the desk area in the room, and the towels weren’t replaced when the room was serviced. With a bit more attention to cleanliness, the experience would be even better. That said, the hotel is in a fantastic location, and the staff was amazing, so welcoming and kind throughout our stay. Despite the minor room issues, we truly enjoyed our visit and would definitely consider staying here again."
