Very unique property, fair warning there is only a narrow staircase to enter the rooms & parking is limited. That aside its a very comfortable stay.

Kind and helpful staff

I am an elderly solo traveler who struggles with technology. I did struggle with the keypads instead room key and was required to scale quite a few flights of stairs as there is no lift… HOWEVER, The staff were extremely helpful and very friendly, I do highly recommend this establishment.

The property says it’s an apartment with city view and the room is very small compared to a normal room. It’s not an apartment. And the windows are blocked and you can’t see anything. I won’t recommend anyone this place.
