A Tender Escape

simple routes eager staff tranquil atmosphere adorable theme

Finding the location was straightforward, and bus routes proved simple to navigate. staff members were eager to assist. i stayed in the 'secret bookcase xl' room, situated within the hotel's heart. It provided a tranquil and cozy atmosphere.. the theme was just adorable. it reminded me of an escape into another world, and the meticulous details showed so much love and care.

My only slight issue involved a faint odor in the hallway near the rooms. It was not pervasive, but it was noticeable during brief moments. this didn't affect my room itself or the overall quality of the stay.

Unique Stay in a Secret Bookcase!

bookcase room comfy bed clean bathroom unique experience

I stayed in the Secret Bookcase XL room, and it was such a cool experience! The room had a window facing the corridor, definitely unique. The bed was comfy, but I agree with other guests that Europe needs improved pillows. The shared bathrooms were REALLY clean!

The lack of storage in the room was a slight issue. I wished I had some hooks for hanging clothes.

The staff were very helpful and polite, happily lifting suitcases and providing assistance, it made the arrival smoother. I could get a hairdryer when requested from the staff, this was super helpful for me. They answered all questions quickly and kindly, it was great!

The room had a shower and a sink. This was unexpected, so I was very happy. The room was clean, I slept very well and the size was good for a solo traveler. I noticed attention to the details in the room.

This place was unique! the themed room decor was so cool. i appreciated that the hotel provides bike rentals to easily explore. the thai food was really excellent. the staff was also very kind. They pointed me toward some interesting spots.
