"This was a beautiful apartment to stay in, with the perfect mix of historic charm and fresh, modern finishes.

However, reception responded quickly and made things right, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a lovely stay and I would definitely stay here again."

10/10 Excellent

"This was an excellent, modern apartment hotel with an absolutely fantastic location. We really appreciated the kitchenette after traveling for a few weeks - it was so nice to be able to stock up on breakfast and snacks to have around. Beds were comfy, shower a good size, and our room was very quiet so we got a great rest. It was close to the bus line and simple to walk where we needed to go. If you want to be in the action without having to listen to the action, it is a perfect retreat."
