    cozy fireplace
    luxurious linens
    rooftop garden
    slight noise

    We stayed in The Hector room, and it was such a nice surprise to have a cozy fireplace and luxurious linens that made our stay feel special. There’s a lovely spa to unwind at and a rooftop garden perfect for evening relaxation. The only thing was a slight noise from the street, but it didn’t ruin our experience at all! 🌟

    charming décor
    wine hour
    friendly staff
    unmonitored lobby

    Had a great time with friends! We loved the charming décor, and the wine hour was a nice touch. We visited a cool steakhouse nearby and explored local shops. The staff was friendly and recommended awesome spots. Perfect for a group getaway.

    The lobby was sometimes unmonitored, which felt a bit concerning at times.

    limited lobby seating

    Awesome little gem!

    I had a super comfy stay for 3 nights. The staff was really nice, and Gema at the front desk made me feel so at home, especially when I wasn't feeling too good. The room was cozy and had a big flat-screen TV. Loved the coffee in the lobby, but I could've used some more seating there since it got a bit crowded at times.

    helpful staff

    The Hector room was nicely decorated with a super comfy bed and luxurious linens. It had a separate living room with a fireplace that made it feel cozy and homey. Everything was clean, and the staff was quick to help with anything we needed. The location was great – quiet yet close to everything. No complaints here!
