    charming location

    Couples seeking charm

    The location was unbelievable, right near all the best spots and we even had a room overlooking the canal which was just gorgeous. You know I'm not one for frivolities, but the room had this author theme that really set a nice vibe while we were there.

    It wasn't exactly pocket change, but overall felt acceptable.

    The location was marvellous, within easy walking distance of Botanical Gardens. And it was also really close to shops, shopping street, and the centre of the sink.

    The staff and the host were all very friendly and amicable. The property was in the middle of the city. There were a good choice of restaurants to eat, like Gastrobar Boca that was only 5 minutes' walk away.

    The room was stylishly designed and well-furnished. I encountered issues with cleanliness and had difficulty adjusting the heating in my room. The absence of on-site staff was nice, but the overall ambiance was still pleasant.

    digital check-in
    steep stairs

    Had a great time at Cty Books! Loved the quirky room decor and our canal view was fine. The digital check-in was smooth, but just be ready for the steep stairs. Location couldn't be better with cafes right outside.

    stylish bathroom
    earplugs available
    staffless hotel

    The bathroom boasts a stylish design that stands out for its contemporary feel. The hotel offers earplugs for light sleepers, a thoughtful touch for those who might be sensitive to the lively sounds of the surrounding area.

    The absence of staff makes the place feel a bit impersonal, and entering the hotel requires reliable wireless access, a touch unsettling. The room temperature was notably cold upon arrival, and figuring out the heating system took longer than expected. I encountered cleanliness issues, including toilet paper residues and bugs in the living area, alongside a shower drain that was somewhat clogged.

    excellent location
    quirky decor
    lack of staff
    impersonal atmosphere
    temperature control issues

    The location provided easy access to charming cafes and fine canal views directly from our first-floor room. The decor was quirky and inviting. The initial lack of staff created a slightly impersonal atmosphere, and the digital check-in process, while smooth, felt a bit odd without any in-person assistance. Adjusting the room's temperature took some time, a minor inconvenience.

    Charming stay on the canal

    The building is so pretty, right by the canal! We loved our cozy room with a fantastic view. Plus, it was super convenient having shops and cafes nearby, especially with the Saturday market just steps away. Only bummer was the heating took a bit to figure out, but otherwise, it was a lovely stay! Enjoyed breakfast at a cute café close by.
