Reviews and Ratings
I had a delightful stay at the hotel with its superb location near the trolley and within walking distance of numerous attractions, including the shoreline. Everything was so close by, especially Filippes Pizza, making it an excellent choice. The only downside was the room with a window towards the courtyard, but overall, a great experience.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were modern and beautifully decorated with a view towards the courtyard. The bed was comfortable, and the overall decor was pleasing and interesting. The service was exceptional, and the hotel's location was perfect, close to the Convention Centre and charming local Little Italy restaurants. However, being close to the airport could be a bit noisy at times. The dining experience offered delicious traditional meals. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything I needed for a great stay.

However, the dining options could be improved, and the lack of included fresh orange juice was a downside.

The hotel is located very close to the trolley stop in the charming Little Italy neighborhood, with some nice restaurants around it. The rooms have a pleasant modern decor and interesting design, perfect for large suitcases, right in front of the bed. The service was exceptional. However, the dining options were limited to Asian dishes. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel's location is excellent, within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and close to transport options.
