This hotel is beyond! The attention to detail was literally Chef’s kiss! We couldn’t stop pointing out new discoveries to each other. We stayed here as a celebratory evening for getting married earlier in the day and this hotel did not disappoint. The rooms are on the smaller side, but are you there for the rooms??? The cocktail bar, Bloom was extremely sexy. The whole place is sexy. Just book the room!
