Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel offers a modern ambiance and comfortable beds, making it a decent choice for a stay. However, the breakfast experience could seriously use improvement, along with the front desk service, which feels lacking at times. While the rooftop bar and overall atmosphere create a charming social aspect, the dining options and overall service don't quite meet expectations.
The hotel has a trendy and modern vibe, which is appealing, and the location is perfect for easy access to the University and local attractions. Although the rooftop bar is a nice feature, my experience there was not great due to reserved seating issues. Additionally, while the beds were incredibly comfortable, the inconsistent air conditioning and lack of a refrigerator in the room were drawbacks that need addressing.
This hotel has a lot of potential with its trendy decor and prime location near the University, but I encountered multiple issues that impacted my overall experience. The rooms are visually appealing but lack basic amenities expected at this price point, and the service quality varied significantly. I appreciated the friendly staff, but the experience was marred by other shortcomings. While I enjoyed the rooftop bar and clean premises, the uncomfortable beds and lack of proper maintenance reduced the overall value for money.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite modern and spacious, but the ongoing repairs on the 3rd floor were off-putting. The setting is convenient, especially for quick access to downtown, but I felt there were better alternatives nearby for the price. The service was decent overall, though I encountered a loud cooking smell that started super early in the morning due to the kitchen below.
