The hotel is in an excellent, convenient neighborhood and the room was spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable bed and nice linens. Unfortunately, for the price, we found the hotel often prioritized style over practicality and comfort.
The biggest issue was the lack of comfortable communal space. There is essentially nowhere to sit and relax outside the room: no comfortable lounge to read a book, have a drink, or simply spend time at the hotel between outings. For a hotel at this price point, this felt like a significant omission.
The room also had several impractical details. There were only five high, slippery hangers, requiring a metal pole to lower them from the wardrobe. There was no iron or steamer, and no bedside lamps, although there is a main light switch by the bed.
Housekeeping was inconsistent. Water and toilet paper were not automatically replenished when we ran out and had to be requested. On one occasion, I was feeling unwell and, as I am pregnant, needed water in the room. It took over an hour from requesting it to actually receiving it.
Overall, the hotel is attractive and very well located, but the experience felt more focused on aesthetics than comfort and functionality. Given the price, we expected a more thoughtful and polished experience.
