We’ll be back, soon!
Great place to rest and relax. Useful amenities (laundry room, shared kitchen). No room service, but really who needs that these days, especially given the fabulous eateries around the hotel. We had a delicious meal at Orlo next door. Amazing restaurant with wonderful staff. Equaled only by the staff at Lyf. Thumbs up on all fronts.

Disliked: Amenities
Whilst extremely clean and convenient....this is an overpriced hostel, not a hotel. The room is tiny with just a queen bed, hard wooden bench seat attached to it that you have to climb over to get in bed and a very small shower / toilet that was claustrophobic despite being 5.2. No kettle or fridge in the room, so food has to be put in a shared kitchen. $200 per night would get a much larger hotel room - unfortunately I booked in a rush and didn't read about the lack of amenities. It's really designed as one of those fancy "collaboration hostels" where people can watch TV and work in common areas. Super comfortable bed and linen though which was what I was needing (especially when I got sick on the second day and had to extend by a night). Great for a short stay and if you only have a small bag (there is no wardrobe and just 4 hooks to hang clothing).

A nice change from the usual hotel rooms. Everything was new, clean and well presented. Great decor! Our only complaint was that there was no cofee in the kitchen after hours and it was difficult to get in and out of the bed, being against the window.

The room was minuscule, but was clean, had good power points and a proper hairdryer. The hotel is really designed for people who want to use the wide variety of public spaces for working, eating, etc.
