    Everything was wonderful, the parking was on street, the room was gorgeous and fantastic. The breakfasts were enjoyable and excellent with muesli and a bowl of fresh fruit, as example. In general the service was impeccable. Lucky me, got ironing free of charge too. Enjoyed a such great stay, I would still consider staying here again...

    The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. The rooms were clean and comfy, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Plus, the location was so convenient - we were able to walk to Boulders Penguin Colony and hang out with those adorable little guys. It was such a fun and memorable experience!

    The only thing we wished for was a bit more nightlife in the area. As young party-goers, we were hoping for some more options to let loose and have a good time.

    I felt like royalty dining in the exclusive Private Dining Room. The staff was so dedicated, they even helped me choose from the vast selection of books. Going on a plant-based diet has never been easier with their fresh, fiber-rich dishes.

    Oh, and let's not forget the delightful experience of sweating profusely in the hot and stuffy atmosphere. Quite an unexpected bonus!
