Well-Equipped Gym

“I enjoyed my time at the gym with enough equipment for a casual workout. However, I do wish they had a barbell to complete the setup. The gym was clean and well-maintained, making it a pleasant spot to stay active during my stay.” view full review

Delicious Bakery Treats

“The bakery downstairs was a highlight! Every day, I indulged in fresh bagels and delicious pastries. The quality ingredients really made a difference, with such a variety to choose from. It was the perfect way to start my day while staying at the hotel.” view full review

Comfortable Room Ambiance

“My room had a fantastic industrial-chic design, which I found very appealing. The separate seating area was a nice touch, and the large comfortable bed made it easy to relax. Plus, the blackout curtains were excellent for getting a good night's sleep despite the long hours of daylight.” view full review

Relaxing Walk-In Shower

“The walk-in shower in my room was a fantastic feature with a large raindrop showerhead that created a very refreshing experience. I appreciated the quality toiletries provided, made my daily routine feel luxurious. It was a good way to unwind after a busy day of exploring.” view full review
