Anthony

Disliked: Amenities
When we arrived room smelled horrible...like stale bleach. Rooms are super small and not set up well. No where near enough flat surfaces. Water in shower was luke warm. There must be an issue with the water in the building or something it was that cool. The duesen duesen stuff is cool and so is the art work but the hotel is really sub par. Would not stay here again. Not worth it at all.

Only spent a night here but super compact clean with quirky decor which I loved. The little kitchenette was very convenient and shame I didn’t get to use it and try the coffee pot kettle. Had an ironing board a safe and bath robes and even an umbrella you could borrow/buy if you forgot yours.
