The hotel itself feels peaceful and thoughtfully designed with a cozy lounge area, free drinking water, and complimentary tea. My room was quiet and comfortable, and I loved that the TV streamed Netflix—perfect for relaxing after a busy day of exploring. I stayed three days as a budget traveler ("special forces" style), and still felt well-rested every morning. The staff truly stood out—warm smiles from the front desk and housekeeping team made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. If you arrive early, they’ll happily store your luggage and move it into your room as soon as it’s ready.
