Love the concept and the European influence, which, of course, means tiny. Not necessarily a bad thing, just getting in and out of bed for the person sleeping near the wall can be a bit awkward. The toilet/shower unit leaked onto the main room floor, not a deal breaker. 24 hour bar and food options, is a nice convenience. A small complaint; when I ordered one of their specialty drinks they were out of the ingredient. It seems to me if yu have a specialty drink on your menu you would be sure to have the necessary ingredients. Overall, quite good experience, with these minor complaints. A quite good breakfast option at a reasonable price. If you're looking for a fun European style experience, give it a try.

Not happy with this hotel.

This hotel is great for location and has a wonderful covered Patio. The service is not up to par. I don't want self check in. Complimentary coffee should be a minimum, I went to Starbucks rather than pay them for coffee. The ironing room might seem like a good idea but the lighting is dim, the steamer/iron is difficult to use and there could be a back up. Just put a regular iron in there and turn up the lights! Crawling over my husband everytime I had to get up and use the bathroom was a real annoyance as you can only access the bed from one side. The place looks great but doesn't function well.
