The room is super well designed. Clearly the interior designer knows what it takes to be a good design hotel and a good hotel all together. I enjoyed their little details and the room amenities plus what they provide for no any extra charge. The staff was super helpful and kind. The location is great. Quite a bit of a walk from the train station but there are shops along the route so you won't get bored.

Gorgeous boutique hotel. The first room given was by the lift and I had requested a quiet option. I was given a different room which I think was in a higher rate category. The robes are lovely and the beds heavenly.
