They use misleading photos, and when you question it, they tell you that you need to upgrade. To avoid the hassle, I ended up paying extra just to get the room I originally thought I had booked, especially since this was my first stop and I didn’t want to start my trip on a bad note. After contacting Trip.com, they compensated me. There is also no elevator and no assistance, so you have to carry your own luggage up and down the stairs."

Had the best stay here after a very disappointing stay at another property. Luis the property manager was so welcoming and attentive. The property itself is brand new, and tastefully done. Loved the hot tub, loved the towel and linen collection and really appreciated the rain shower. It was a pleasant stay and highly recommended. We enjoyed coming back to the loft after a day of exploring.
