stylish stay!
great locationfriendly staffstreet noise
i returned after a previous visit because the location is great, near key museums. the metro stop is super close too, just a couple of minutes away. staff are helpful and friendly.
the room i stayed in faced the street side. a big avenue next to it meant i could hear street noise. i am sensitive to noise, so this wasn't ideal.
Dining
9/10
The breakfast is very good, filling. healthy options are available. i saw they had smoothies and healthy food. So that's awesome. wine tasting occurs in the evening offering guests a chance to mingle.
Location
9/10
the hotel location is a bit outside of the center but i didn't mind that. you can walk to nice places including shops, museums, and restaurants without issue. it is near an embassy, so it has a quiet safe vibe.
Facilities
10/10
the rooms have funky little touches, which i love. the room i booked featured a jacuzzi on the balcony, that was a very nice surprise. full size spirit bottles are in the room too offering such brands as grey goose vodka.

adequate stay with issues
hot itemsmusty smellsmall beds
The breakfast included hot items made to order. This was acceptable.
The room lacked storage. There was only a hanging rack. the air conditioning emitted a musty smell that never dissipated, even after reporting it to the staff. twin beds were oddly small, more suitable for children.
