This hotel's interior design is so trendy and cool. I love the aesthetic of the hotel and the rooms. Very pleasant and clean in all corners of the building. Staff were all super friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The only thing that was frustrating is the chrome cast feature on the room TV's is a bit tricky to use. Other hotel's I've stayed at have a great welcome video and navigating the hotel page plus promotion of local restaurants, bars shopping and events seamlessly advertised on their TV guide with access to apps.

They have thought of everything in these compact rooms- so well designed and functional. Staff were exceptional at check in, check out and in the front bar/ dining area. I would highly recommend staying here and I would definitely stay again as the price was great and location was perfect for us.

Funky and quirky little place. Supposedly a “Small Luxury Hotel”. Room was small and had lots of stuff to buy but no simple amenities you’d expect from a luxury hotel (slippers, robes, toothbrush, iron/board). I’m sure it’s all in the name of “sustainability”. And the air con was not working sufficiently - the corridors were cool but the room certainly wasn’t. Despite contacting the front desk 4 times about the issue we were never offered a different room. They supposedly “reset” the aircon several times. Breakfast was included in our rate but it only includes one plate from the menu, a hot drink and one juice. That’s of course in the fine print. Everything else costs extra but nobody explicitly tells you and you get only hit with that at checkout. One morning we arrived 10 minutes before the end of the breakfast window. We got that breakfast served with a generous side of attitude. Will not return. Ever.
