organic productscomfortable bed
The breakfast included local products, sourced organically. The lobby transformed into a breakfast area. It created a very cozy environment. The bar being open 24 hours was wonderful. The beds were comfortable for a perfect night's sleep.
The room was tiny, and it felt a bit cramped.

basic stay with some issues

limited wardrobeslow check-in
i found the lack of wardrobe space inconvenient. The room only had three hangers. the breakfast buffet also lacked variety, particularly for vegetarians as only one type of cheese was available. checking in took an excessive 30 minutes which seemed inefficient.

I must say, the experience wasn't stellar. the room was tiny. I reminded me of i was in a dollhouse, with hardly any space to move around. also, the lack of a wardrobe was a major inconvenience. My clothes ended up living out of my suitcase the entire time. where am i supposed to put my clothes?
