    The room was very spacious and clean, with a large bathroom too. The staff was super friendly and they even helped us out printing some documents we needed for onward travel. The design of the lobby (and the rest of the hotel really) is really cool so as soon as you enter the hotel you can feel the boutique vibe. Location of the hotel is great too; close to Jonker Walk (where the night market is on the weekends) and the Red Square/Dutch Square with all the historic buildings, lots of good food options close by as well.
