cute apartmentrooftop barentertainment optionspool table

I was pleased with the two-bedroom apartment. There was a bakery on the first floor and I enjoyed starting my mornings there. The covered rooftop bar had a grill and it proved perfect during a stormy evening. I appreciated options for entertainment that included a pool table.

The loud music at night made it difficult to sleep at times. This was only a minor issue. I was still very satisfied with my visit.

I found the hotel to be quite large and well maintained. the rooftop terrace was a highlight, offering a pool and cityscape views. the staff provided really good service. i really appreciated the communal showers. They had hot water.

the noise levels were high, especially at night (the music went on very late). it made sleeping difficult, even with earplugs in my room.

cramped spacecorridor window

i booked a standard room and was a little disappointed. the space felt super cramped. the only window faced the corridor, so there was no daylight in the room. it felt pretty depressing. also, the air conditioning could only be set to 18 degrees celsius. there was a party every night until very late, this wasn't advertised and really sucked because i had an early alarm and could not relax the night before
