The style is elegant and comfortable, with parquet floors and tasteful decor. Rooms are cleaned daily. While the bedding is comfortable, some bathrooms can be compact with a shower-over-toilet layout. Road-facing rooms may hear street noise during the day, but the area is generally very quiet at night. Higher-floor rooms tend to be brighter and quieter. A few rooms have a more open-plan bathroom with a frosted glass panel rather than a full door.
