The hotel offers beautifully designed rooms with luxurious amenities but has some inconsistency in bathroom sizes. The service is top-notch with extremely helpful and friendly staff. The location, just outside the city center, provides easy access to shopping and dining options. The dining experience, though excellent, has undergone slight changes recently. Overall, a great value for a pleasant stay.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were uniquely designed and well-equipped, with comfortable beds in the Penthouse Suite, but lacking coffee or tea facilities. The toilet door design was a bit awkward, and the window that opens was a plus. Overall, the rooms were modern, stylish, and functional.
