Overnight stay

Overnight stay. Very tiny room. We had to share with next room for kitchen. Price is steep and they treat me like it’s hostel where we need to share kitchen. Very slow check in process. Bathroom is glass door and can see everything through. May be tricky if you share room with friends instead of your partner.

Great for price point. Comfortable bed and pillows. TV has Netflix and Disney (not logged in). Would have been good to have some more communal utensils/cutlery. Very smart design throughout.

excellent location, shared kitchen facilities and kind staff. Room was barely equipped, uncomfortable to maneuver as pushed against a wall, and no cleaning or towels service.

Nice design and layout. Rooms are small but cosy, modern, and well furnished. The shared spaces are cool and give a bit of a hostel vibe. Location is great, and close to many dining options. The parking can be a bit tricky to find at first, as it's not on the same street as the hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

Shady management. Left me without a place to stay.

Shocking Experience – Misleading Policies I’ve stayed at this hotel three times previously with my dog, relying on their advertised pet-friendly amenities. However, during my recent stay, I was shocked to discover that their pet policy had changed in April—something that was never communicated to me during booking or check-in. When my partner arrived late Friday with our dog, she was refused check-in. Despite my requests for an exception or a reasonable solution, staff repeatedly refused and offered no viable options. I even offered to pay a cleaning fee, but the only suggestion was a far more expensive alternative at another property. This left me with no choice but to give the room to my partner while I had to make a makeshift bed and sleep in my office with my dog. The lack of transparency, refusal to accommodate, and overall treatment were unacceptable. If your policy has changed, it must be communicated clearly on your website and booking platforms. I won’t be returning after this experience and would caution others to confirm policies before booking.

Would like to return soon!

A gem of a place. really enjoyed the set up with the shared spaces and the private rooms. The rooms are bright, friendly, and clean. The hotel is cheerful and fresh. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Everything was excellent during our 1 week stay. Adding a few hangers to the supply drawer would be great. Otherwise, it's not lacking in anything. The location is great, with everything in walking distance.
