Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The place was immaculate. The kitchen is very well equipped, clean and modern.
Negative: For $120/night the room was extremely tiny. Literally just enough space to move around a queen bed. The bar downstairs has a live band every first Friday of the month. It was very loud from 3pm to 4/5pm whilst they practised and from about 7pm till 10pm for the live performance.
Summary: 1 night stay
