Satisfactory Stay with Some Minor Issues
fun designfree minibarunfriendly staff
The room had a fun design, I also liked the free minibar. The building itself was cool. I also found the location convenient. I was grateful for these amenities.
The staff at check-out seemed unfriendly to me. I thought this was an issue. The beds looked like bunk beds. The double bed consisted of two small beds pushed together.

I found the rooftop bar to be lovely. it had a great view and the cocktails were enjoyable. i also liked the convenient parking available. my room was on the sixth floor and it had a nice view of the cathedral. i could hear the bells in the morning. It was lovely!!!
i noticed that the room looked a bit tired. there were scuff marks along the walls. i felt it needed some retouching. the floors were not hoovered well, and there was hair on the toilet floor. the carpets inside and outside the room were also stained.

I stayed for several nights, and i must say the minibar was a good surprise. It was lovely. the boom box added a playful touch to the room. the bed was super comfy, and the room size felt just right. i really liked the openable windows, and the temperature in the room was ideal.
I noticed the carpets in the hallways could use a thorough cleaning. This was quite evident.

I appreciated the secure basement garage. It gave me peace of mind . The rooftop bar and terrace surprised me, a good spot for relaxation. My bedroom was comfortable, and the quirky touches throughout the hotel were lovely.
Building work near the hotel woke me at 7 AM with drilling noises. I likely would have postponed my stay if I had known about the noise.
