Value for money, coastal area. I enjoyed that place, the balcony was tiny. Nice garden outside. Very central location and budget hotel itself. On the whole freshly made food; the purple pig was in the vicinity;)))

My room had not so nice view.

I loved this hotel, it was spotless and surprising. Food was exceptional with plenty of alternatives. Awesome staff provided an attentive service. Exceptional location, close enough to the river and an amazing restaurant, yet the area was questionable.

Wi-Fi signal was not good.

Amazing location for our trip. Tourist destinations like millennium park were near to the hotel. It was definitely 4 stars for us. London house rooftop bar, located within 10 minutes' walk, is a good dining option.
