Reviews
Aesthetic place with a nice interesting layout. I enjoyed the food and coffee options a lot. Staff were good. Rooms small but clean, no complaints there.
Unfortunately there is one big drawback and that is the thin walls in the rooms. Not only can you clearly hear conversations in neighbouring rooms (down to exact words), but footsteps/voices/doors opening and closing and even the plumbing/running water from the room above you is really loud. Unfortunately this is not something that the hotel can fix at this point, but going for cheap walls at the building stage does have downsides. I am quite a light sleeper and slept really terribly because of it, to the point where I decided to leave one night early because I knew I'd feel even worse after another night like that. The rooms are definitely overpriced for this kind of construction.
I think it should be fine if you are staying alone or with only a small group during a quiet season with not many other guests. Or if you're someone who'll sleep through anything. If you're a light sleeper or already have trouble sleeping deeply in new places, you will be completely at the whim of the schedules of the other guests (such as people coming back to their rooms well past midnight).
The staff is friendly and helpful.
The rooms and the entire complex are beautiful, and the area is very quiet and safe.
Personally, I found it a bit disappointing that the lobby was too crowded in the evenings, as the conference groups would be sitting and chatting there. But that's just a matter of personal preference. Otherwise, I would have enjoyed having a glass of wine or something similar in the evening.
