the rooms features curated artwork. the artwork makes you feel like you are in someone's fabulous home. each room has soft, romantic details, so i chose to have my breakfast there rather than the rooftop.

the hotel design was romantic, unique, warm, and stylish. our suite had a courtyard with beautiful gardens. the rooftop was very pleasant to dine, so we sat every morning eating breakfast and every night sipping on wine.

the room was divine WITH all my needs accommodated to. I REALLY enjoyed the cute feel of the hotel.
the merchandising in the room took up space , leaving little room for my belongings. the small room size was not ideal , despite being advertised as 35m2.
