No trust on booking proceses at restaurant
When negotiating the Booking of a private room for a graduation dinner, they cancelled the offer on a Tuesday that was made on the previous Thursday because the gore had other offer. It is a terribly badly managed process where transparency reflecting fair play and honesty was absent.

Perfect get away.
Perfect location close walking distance to the museums and to the parks. Close to bus stops. The atmosphere was perfect, chilled out. Rooms were clean and very spacious. Service was top tier nothing was too much for them. We didn’t eat in here so can’t comment on the restaurant/food. It’s definitely a treat to stay here with the price but 100% worth it! Honestly can’t recommend this place enough.… Perfect location close walking distance to the museums and to the parks. Close to bus stops. The atmosphere was perfect, chilled out.
