The property was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see. The restaurants nearby had excellent food and coffee. Overall, we really enjoyed the place and would return. The only thing I would mention is there could be clearer instructions on how to get inside and the need for Wi-Fi in order to access the electronic key. The physical keys provided to us did not open the outer doors.

On arrival, entering the property with digital keys was quick and efficient. We had no issues. Housekeeping staff was excellent help throughout the trip. He was attentive and polite.
The room itself was comfortable, has everything you would need for a stay. I would only suggest availability of complimentary water, as advertised on the welcome video, as this was not in the room.
For what we received and the location the price point was very fair in comparison to neighbouring properties. Would highly recommend for a short or long trip.
There is also a nice perk of a spa and gym close by with no extra charge.

Excellent central location, room instructions and self check in were seamless as long as you’re tech savvy (keyless) bars, restaurants and local shops right on the doorstep. Depending how quickly you walk can be in the central piazza in 10 mins. Only negative was the creepy staff member knocking on my door at 9am on Saturday morning and the next day asking me why I hadn’t checked out at 10am despite being 1 hour before check out time.
Probably a one off but some communication and a do not disturb sign would be useful.
That being said would highly recommend

Amazing location if able walking distance to all landmarks. Property clean, could do with a deep clean in toilet area. Cleaner daily was lovely and replaced towels and toilet roll if needed. Fridge was empty and not plugged in, we didn’t use air conditioning but windows were operational. Bed was really comfy. Only downsides-noisy plumbing and not enough storage for clothes for anything over 2 day stay. Did not ruin our experience though we just had to leave clothes in bags.

Arrivo in struttura e per mia sorpresa mi viene assegnata una stanza di categoria piu' bassa rispetto a quella prenotata (camera standard al posto della junior suite).
La camera era sporca, mal ridotta e piena di peli e capelli ovunque.
Muovo le mie rimostranze all'operatore (tutto via chat in quanto non esiste un presidio fisico nella struttura) e mi viene risposto che il disguido è dovuto ad un probelma di sincronizzazione di Expedia con i loro sistemi.
Dato che non è un mio problema, richiedo di avere la stanza per cui ho pagato ma mi viene risposto che la struttura è piena. Male. Chiedo un rimborso e mi dicono che verificheranno.
Infastidito, vado a fami una doccia ma non c'è acqua calda, ricontatto l'operatore, parlo con gli inservienti ma a quanto pare la caldaia si è rotta. L'acqua calda arriverà solo nel pomeriggio del secondo giorno. Come alternativa mi viene proposto di andare a lavarmi in una palestra li vicino. Rifiuto e mi offrono un buono di 5 euro da consumare in un bar. Imbarazzante.
Ad oggi non mi hanno ancora ne erogato un rimborso ne alcuna compensazione per tutti i disagi che mi hanno provocato.

You couldn’t pay me to stay here again!

The room was dirty and had no windows. When I queried this, the host opened an electronic shutter in the ceiling, revealing a dirty skylight, from which dozens of spiders (alive and dead) then fell onto the bed - so I had to keep that closed for the duration of the stay. There was also a funny smell which was apparently a spray to “sanitise” the room, but I think the real reason for it was to cover up the mould smell coming from the mini fridge and from the bathroom. There is also no manned reception desk (something I missed from the small print) so check in was quite stressful having to make arrangements to meet the host. It is certainly very well located, but overall not worth the price and I will not be staying here again.

Worst hotel experience ever!

There is no staff on site to help you if you need it. All doors open from a webpage on your phone. If your phone dies, or your data package runs out and you can’t access that page, you’re not getting in. The management only responds to texts on WhatsApp from 9AM to 10PM, and in my experience they didn’t even respond to those. There’s an intercom at the front door, but they won’t answer it. They have only responded to me to argue against giving me a refund after my horrible experience. In addition, they were using my room to store building materials.

To be honest, the room was fine, the staff once we met them were very friendly. The checkin was VERY difficult I have to say. No guidance on how to enter the property (no reception), I wrote messages on Expedia before that were left unanswered, then wrote to the provided whatsapp number which was left unread and then i called 30mins before checkin. Once this was settled the room was fine. I loved the location and the staff was friendly when i met them.

Very clean, modern room with excellent housekeeping. Can be a bit noisy at night, thanks to nearby bar. Only natural light is from skylight, so wouldn’t recommend it for longer stay unless you don’t mind not having window. We were fine for two nights, and neighborhood is convenient.

Host’s communication wasn’t great — they sent entry directions to WhatsApp, not Expedia, without warning and no one showed up to let us in at front. (Another tenant let us in eventually.) They told us they’d send link to pay local tax, but never did, despite reminder. Someone finally collected it as we were leaving.

Oh, and unless you’re tall, you probably won’t be able to use hangers, which are stationed absurdly high in wardrobe.

Construction and renovations were cosmetic. The room was clean but the toilet came away from the wall, the sink looked like it might fall on our feet, and the ceiling in our friends’ room started leaking. The location of the property is amazing, but there is a lot of dog poo in the area. The bed was slumped in the middle which made for uncomfortable sleeping. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy. The shower was great. The A/C was just a fan, and there were no real windows in the unit to allow for fresh air circulation, which I found stifling.

Good stay but a few remarks

Pros: location, clean room, easy check in process. Kind staff.

Remarks: junior suite has no windows. All doors are opened through an app. It malfunctioned once and 4 guests were stuck outside. Hotel is kind of hard to reach through WhatsApp. Since no reception one would assume faster replies through WhatsApp (I called - not just texted that specific time).

Communication was generally flawed. Their administration (payment and getting information through to staff) was not optimal.

For some reason every night at around 00-02 there was this weird loud sound coming from the walls (water) and some weird suction noises then...the stench...the stench of feces woke us up if the sound didn't. So that wasn't too nice.

But as you can see I'm still giving a 4 star for the stay. Just wanted to be clear with the review that we did encounter and observe som problems. Other than that the location is top notch. The room was spacious and clean. The app is actually quite useful. Never need to keep track of keys (although they did offer physical keys in the room. Just for transparency).

La habitación estaba muy bien. Era una triple con sofá cama y todas las camas eran buenas. El único problema era que no tenía ventana. Solo un tragaluz en el techo que debido a las lluvias no paraba de sonar durante toda la noche. La lluvia golpeaba sobre el plástico del tragaluz y se ha hecho difícil pasar la noche.

Cold room for just one night

Room itself was ok, but considering the price very tiny with no service. Therefore a bad price/service-relation. Heating did not work, so very cold in the room. Also windows are towards the street and level with the sidewalk. Noise and no privacy. Overall a not so pleasant stay.
