Fodor's "The result is a cheerful avant-garde aesthetic with luxurious details such as high-pressure shower heads." Full review
Lonely Planet "The standard rooms are indeed a little Cramped, but full of designer twirls and a light, white and timber toned décor, all hidden behind an (often illuminated) 1892 façade." Full review
