    I absolutely loved my stay at this luxurious hotel! The location was right in the middle of everything, making it incredibly convenient to explore shops, bars, and even the beach. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort, always willing to assist with anything I needed. The rooms were beautifully decorated and immaculately clean, making me feel right at home.

    I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. The service, the amenities, and the overall experience were top-notch.

    As a light sleeper, I appreciated the quiet and relaxed atmosphere of Drift. The modern, boutique style and comfortable rooms made for a restful stay. The self-check-in process was easy to navigate, and the staff I did interact with were friendly and helpful. The convenient location, within walking distance of stores and restaurants, was a bonus.

    Felt safe, no complaints whatsoever.

    Located in a prime spot, this accommodation is perfect for those who want to explore the city on foot. Enjoy a delicious cup of coffee in the cozy cafe, or grab a drink at the busy and hip bar. The staff is incredibly friendly and always willing to help with any concerns you may have. The rooms are compact and beautifully decorated, providing a comfortable and clean atmosphere.

    There is only one trash can in the bathroom, which can be inconvenient for some guests.

    Our romantic escape was made more enjoyable by the friendly and helpful hotel staff. The location of the hotel was perfect for exploring the surrounding area and trying out different restaurants. We loved that the hotel offered clear electronic instructions for everything, making our stay seamless. Another advantage was the clean and stylish urban design of the hotel.

    Although our stay was pleasant, there were a few downsides. The room lacked natural light and felt claustrophobic.

    The hotel is in a prime tourist location with easy access to various shops and restaurants. The staff was very accommodating and always willing to help. The electronic check-in process was very efficient and easy to follow. the hotel offered a coffee shop and bar on-site.

    The bunk rooms may not be ideal for those who value safety and need ample space. some design choices were impractical, such as the placement of the sink and lack of trash cans.
