a TRUE Gem in the City

high-quality finishes thoughtful touch complimentary coffee
The apartment featured beautiful decor and high-quality finishes, offering every facility I could desire, including robes and slippers. I discovered even umbrellas near the door, a true delight. The lounge presented complimentary coffee and pastries. It was a sweet touch for breakfast. I found it was a nice gesture while waiting to check in and out.
The hotel lacked proper noise insulation. I could hear people walking above, beside, and doors opening and closing. Every time I heard a noise, I thought someone was opening my door. It made sleeping a little challenging.

clean room equipped kitchen non-functioning lift loud ac
The location was superb it was close to everything. The room was very clean the little kitchen was well equipped. Complimentary coffee and pastries were lovely in the lounge. The staff provided a tablet in the room so we could easily communicate with them.
The lift was out of service for the entire week. The hotel is poorly noise proofed I could hear people walking above and in the rooms beside. The AC was super loud I could hear it from the room next door. The WiFi never worked for us.
