I loved the hotel’s unique blend of cozy charm and industrial edge—it struck the perfect balance between warmth and modern flair. The atmosphere was effortlessly relaxed, with a genuinely friendly vibe that made it easy to unwind. Its location was a dream: just steps away from vibrant shopping streets and tempting dining spots, and with tour departures conveniently right across the road, it couldn’t have been better positioned for exploring.

Great location, friendly staff. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5, the room was small, very little space for luggage & the refrigerator didn’t work.

Beds were great, breakfast was great, staff great. In the stairwells and hallways there was an awful smell all the time- maybe from the kitchen? It was awful and all my clothes stink like it now. Otherwise- great place! Such a good vibe and so convenient having Le Kock and donuts downstairs!

I’d stay here again

Quirky, clean, well-designed and relaxing hotel. Reception staff were great, beds were comfortable, location was handy. The bar, bakery and restaurant downstairs were all brilliant too (as evidenced by the queues of locals).
