"We had breakfast everyday in the rooftop cafe; the full breakfast is massive so after 2 days of stuffing ourselves we chose from the a la carte which was cheaper and still excellent."

charming stay in a super place

helpful staff cute atmosphere

I was given a double room at first. it had minimal lighting! i then spoke to the receptionist about it. He immediately changed my room to a brighter one. all the hotel staff were so helpful and cute.

the hotel rooms are a bit dark, though the lighting isn't great. this was quite noticeable, especially in the evenings. more lamps or brighter bulbs would really help.

friendly staff communal areas hotel detail absent assistance poor lighting small room

The staff was indeed friendly and ready to help. I felt very comfortable in my room, even though it was the smallest room available. I particularly enjoyed the communal areas and the attention to detail throughout the hotel (the mint leaves in the water bottle were a nice touch).

Upon arrival, I found nobody offered help with my bags. The lighting in the room was not great. This made it hard to see (especially in the evening).
