Katrina, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was lovely and clean. Quite spacious and over all very good apart from the main bed mattress being hard and uncomfortable. Shower door opened inwards only and when in the shower you are unable to close the door so had to shower with the door open. It could have been just that 1 room and I would let it stop me from going again if only there for 1 night.

10/10 Excellent

A perfect place to stay

A perfect place to stay. Within walking distance to the nicest restaurants and so close to the markets and nightlife. The room was so nice and spacious with lots of storage. The only thing I would like is a full size ironing board. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
