Thank you so much Josh!

The room was very comfortable and the view was amazing, especially at night. The only things that I would like to see changed is a mini fridge in the room and that the restaurant would be available on Sunday evenings and Monday mornings. We were not able to get room service or breakfast until we checked out and went elsewhere.

Thank you very much for your feedback Laura! For your next stay, please know that we are happy to bring a fridge in the room upon request. As per the restaurant and café, we unfortunately had to limit our hours due to the current circumstances but should be back on track in no time. We hope to see you soon!
