Great location Nice small rooms Late check in possible Good coffee Nice ambient
The location is good and the staff are very nice, but rooms need renovation. There is no elevator, so you have to carry your suitcase up the wooden stairs.
Great location but extremely hard to get any sleep here - on a busy street with bars open late every night. Room gets very hot - no AC just a small fan provided. The building has a very musty smell. Showers are too hot.
Cockroaches in the women’s shower. Bugs flying around the room. Located right above a street with many bars- music plays till 2am, super difficult to fall asleep. Staff were not friendly. Bathroom smelled awful. If you have a few extra $$ to spend I recommend going elsewhere.
Super unique place with live music, in a very intimate setting. We sadly just missed the music the evening we dropped by, but stuck around for a couple of drinks. Music ends at 2300 due to noise regulations. Staff were great and the environment was inviting. I’d definitely return, but would ensure I was there in time to check out the show, as it looked like a lot of fun.
