I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel with a great midcentury modern vibe. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the staff were exceptionally welcoming. I did have some issues with the air conditioning and the breakfast service was inconsistent, but overall, it was a pleasant experience. The hotel's location makes it easy to explore local shops and restaurants, which I really appreciated.

I had a wonderful stay at this boutique hotel. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the V&A Waterfront, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The rooms were charming and modern, but a bit tight on space. Breakfast was absolutely fantastic with plenty of options available. Overall, it was a great value for money, although I would have appreciated a bit more space in the room.

I truly felt at home during my stay. The interior design is modern yet cozy, and the staff were wonderful throughout our visit. The room was very spacious and clean, with a great poolside location that offered privacy. It's conveniently located near the V&A Waterfront, making it easy to explore. However, the only downside was the limited size of the cheaper rooms, which might feel tight for two people.

My stay at this boutique hotel was a fantastic experience! The location was perfect, just a short walk from the vibrant waterfront area, and the staff felt like family, always going out of their way to help. The room was beautifully decorated and exceptionally comfortable. The only downside was that the pool area was smaller than expected, but it still got plenty of sun. Overall, a great value for money with amazing breakfasts that set the tone for the day!
