"There was an old fashion fridge with a freezer in the room, as well as an ice maker in the room which is something I don't think we've ever seen before, which was a cool idea."

“This boutique property strikes me as particularly well-suited to families, given the spacious suites equipped with full kitchens and even laundry facilities; parents clearly appreciate having these conveniences while traveling. Though some find the immediate surroundings less than ideal, the rooftop pool seems to be a hit, providing a welcome escape. I also noted some comments about the stylish decor, though a few found it less impressive upon closer inspection.”
