What a awesome gem of a hotel. I love the bar and the cafe and even the lounge, and being able to enjoy your time in these various environments. The room was nice, and everything was clean and well cared for. I did find the room A little echoey as the floors are not carpeted, and the air conditioner was quite noisy, but overall the place was great and I will definitely be back again.
