    • The location is great, simple, clean and aesthetic. Good price. Friendly staff and it got everything you need.
    • Not worth the money
    • Location is really good. Staff was super nice

    Cons -

    • I stayed in the room with balcony, right beside it is an old cemetery, was a bit shocked, if I knew I wouldn’t have booked it. Nothing scary, its just I prefer not to sleep beside graveyard.
    • The room was tiny - barely enough floor space to place the bags. The bathroom was tiny as well.The hotel is very close to a mosque; sa 5 am and 6 am calls for prayer will wake you up if you don’t have earplugs.
    • The room we got was not the one pictured.

    It was exactly like the photos. Property is well-maintained, clean and everything is tastefully decorated .

    Spacious property, location is very near Armenian street, lots of things to do.

    Wifi was not good. I was not getting any signal from wifi in my room.

    Location

    Very small roomNoise Air con in room and from outside unit of the next room

    5IanPosted on: 4-7-2025

    Excellent Location walking distance to Armenian street and the street art. Comfortable room suited for a family of 4. Safe area.

    However, this hotel did have an elevator which required my elderly grandparents to climb the stairs slowly. Also this property is located right beside a mosque, so be prepared to wake up at 5am and 6am at the prayer call timings. The property could have better sound proofing at least.

    The location was absolutely perfect so much so that we prolonged our stay to three nights! This historic building with its charming boho style lobby was a pleasure to casually sit in and chat. The knowledgeable staff was wonderful, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. The large and absolutely quiet room was lovely, impeccably clean and soooo comfortable. I highly recommend

    Sentral location

    Slept in a different building than the original hotel, over a restaurant that was noisy and always a smell of food. The pictures were nothing like the room/building we got and we would not have stayed there if we knew this. Got woken up at around 5 in the morning every day by the moské and they kept going to 11 at night.

    The location.

    We booked 2 Deluxe Rooms expecting them to be somewhat similar. However, one was much smaller in size with hardly any room to move around. The towels provided were ‘new’ and apparently washed prior to them given to us. However, we begged to differ as they had so much excess fibres that shed all over your body and into your nostrils when used.

    I believe that the hotel has more comfortable rooms and can offer a more pleasant experience than we had. But I would still like to meet other travelers and exchange impressions, because some of the guest comments confuse me. If there is one thing worth praising, it is the location, but given the overall impression, I would without hesitation prefer to stay a kilometer further from the tourist center, but more comfortably.

    The hotel is very close to the mosque and is not soundproofed at all, so you feel like the loudspeaker is blaring right next to your ear. The room is very dark, poorly ventilated, there is mold on the walls, the air conditioning is very weak, so it was impossible to sleep at night, not to mention the uncomfortable bed. The furniture is old, a shelf in the wardrobe came loose and fell on my leg. The entrance to the bathroom has a high threshold, so the guest has to be very careful not to sprain his ankle. I imagine something different under the term Deluxe Room. The hotel promises a non-stop reception, but at 7 a.m. you will find there just a completely incompetent man who does not speak English and is not even able to call a taxi.

    Great location in the old part of the town, walking distance to almost every landmark and restaurant/bar in the center. Both A/C and fan are available in the room which is perfect, you can use the A/C during the day and fan during the nice so you won’t wake up sick!

    We had a room on the ground floor with a small terrace but the door was stuck and impossible to open. We managed to do that 2 people each time, but when I first asked the staff they said that it doesn’t work and that they’ll fix it next month. Also, it’d be nice if there was a mini fridge in the rooms.

    Nice boutique cosy hotel pefectly located to explore.In need of some painting in the room we had as starting to look unfresh. Nearby mosque wasnt actually an issue for us but ma be for others. Very friendly staff.

    9ChrisPosted on: 2-28-2025

    Location, style and lovely staff

    Wifi was terrible in my room. Moved to another room but was very noisy. But earplugs solved that.

    8ShirleyPosted on: 2-27-2025

    Really central

    The hotel has an Annexe. Originally we were given two rooms one in the main building the other in the annexe. To be in the same part of the hotel one of us did have to take a slightly smaller room than booked. But it was quickly sorted.

    3GretaPosted on: 2-21-2025

    Just the outside aesthetic of the building, all the rest was negative. Plus, the price was too high for the offer and the accommodation.

    The property it was not like the Booking images at all, it was dirty, old and not curated. The room was full of mosquitos and worst of all, we were not able to sleep as the mosque is literally at the side of the hotel and the prayer with the microphone played at least three times during the night. We were not informed from the stuff about this and we had to leave the room one night earlier because of all the issues. We are still waiting for our refund.

    8LaurenPosted on: 2-16-2025

    Beautiful room in a great spot in town - very central Staff lovely and accommodating Incredibly comfortable bed - excellent bed linen and two pillows - one soft, one foamSafety deposit box too Nice decor in the room

    Very close to mosque and morning prayers beginning at dusk - 5am in February and then are very loud from 6.30am - nice experience but if you were staying there a week, that would be an issue Only shampoo and body wash all in one No fridge in room so no milk storage - just coffee mate Incredibly touristy part of town which is wonderful if that's what you're looking for

    9IgnacioPosted on: 2-7-2025

    Best location, great staff and very comfortable stay. We ere very happy with our choice. also great value for money.

    our room was a bit dark as there were no windows to the street.

    8OakerPosted on: 2-6-2025

    Location of the place is very convenient. Loved our stay here. We booked 1 night short and the staff were very helpful in accommodating to extend our stay. Thank you so much for helping us move our things as we were away on Penang Hill.

    6FrederickPosted on: 1-27-2025

    Location was good and useful to have the guarded parking lot in front of the hotel

    The new wing does not have the charm of the old wing. Looks like the owners just wanted an extension and riding on the charm of the old wing ; pure profit motivated . Did not take the trouble to elevate it to a new level
