I want to thank the friendly staff. the breakfast was wonderful, with lovely communal spaces for relaxation. the garden provided a nice retreat. My room was clean. the room size was good for one person.
The room could get a bit stuffy. It was warm weather, and there was no air conditioning! though, they did provide a fan, it wasn't quite enough.

a rather dated stay

dated roomnut pastries
the room felt quite dated. it seems they focused on renovating the lobby and restaurant, but not the rooms themselves. dust was noticeable in places, and the separate toilet and shower setup felt a bit odd. breakfast was okay though some pastries had nuts, this limited my options as i have allergies.

I found the staff so friendly. They elevated my visit. the location was convenient, nestled close to many wonderful restaurants. the room, a twin room, was simple, yet delightfully updated, it felt refreshingly practical.
i found that the hallways seemed somewhat tired, which detracted slightly from the initial impression. although i booked a garden view room, the actual view overlooked other gardens. the bar's early closing at 11 pm meant no nightcap after a late dinner, quite disappointing.
