magnificent decorunique vibewarm staffdark wallstiny bathroomrestricted pods
The room decor looked magnificent. I stayed in a duplex standard king room and found the ambiance really good. The bar and restaurant area had a unique historical vibe. The staff were polite and warm .
The room was dark. Black walls and very dim lighting were present. The bathroom and shower-room felt tiny with cupboard-style doors and little space. The hotel provided a bizarrely restricted number of Nespresso pods and tea-bags.

funny attendantthick pillow
The front desk attendant was very funny and helpful. He secured a dinner reservation at a fully booked restaurant for us. The shower had strong hot water and the bed offered two pillows with different thickness.
The hotel's parking garage was a bit far. It required walking over cobblestone with luggage.
