Cozy and modern ensuite rooms with large soft bed, complimentary coffee pods, air conditioning, toilet pan with integrated handheld shower spray. The only downside was that walls had no acoustic insulation whatsoever so I could hear literally anything happening in the adjacent and above rooms. Ear plugs strongly recommended.

Note: I have contacted the hotel about these complaints several times and asked for a partial refund but have not heard anything in return, which just drives home my point about how bad the customer service is at this hotel. My experience: I found during my stay that many things were not as advertised on the website, and was underwhelmed with the service provided there. The website claims that it is 'decorated like a 5-star' hotel, yet the room I was in (Tiny Room with balcony) had an insufficient set-up. There was no place to hang towels and the shower was not sealed causing the room to flood (and my baggage to get wet) every time I took a shower. I reported this issue to the team and was confident that this would be dealt with swiftly as the promotion material states that the 'virtual butler is just an app away'. However, I did not receive a response within a suitable time frame. In fact, I only received an answer the next day. And then my request to exchange the towels, soaked through the bathmat, and replace the used coffee pods for more coffee was only partially fulfilled. The soaking bathmat was left in the room, and only the towels were replaced. And while I received new coffee pods, I did not receive more milk for the coffee. This took another day to be rectified and the soaking mat was never replaced. The person coming to my room also left all the used cups and cutlery. This is not the standard I expect from a hotel that advertises itself as a 5-star standard. I am happy to self-cater and do my own dishes, but the room provided no such amenities. There was no dish soap, dish towel, or rack. I think it would be suitable to either provide these things or have the dirty dishes replaced once a day. Overall, this was really disappointing and I am genuinely shocked at the lack of response from the hotel. They clearly don't care about customer satisfaction!

I was overwhelmed by the hospitality of all the staff . Pool-view/pool-access room offers a great spot to enjoy the rest of the day with your beloved one . There is also a play area for kids and best staff to take care of kids . Highly Recommended.

I stayed here a night. Because of some some technical we have to stay here and complete some work and started the next day. But the hotel changes my mood, and then i feel like just relax and enjoy the weekend with relaxing atmosphere. Definitely visit again.

I stayed one night only in this room and it was already too much. What a dirty place! Dust, strange smell in the hallways and the room, stains everywhere, etc. Disgusting. The only positive thing is that it is located in the city centre. Price is much too high for what you get.

The room is spacious and equipped with TV and Dolce Gusto machine. The bed was large and pleasant. Plenty of towels and spacious bathroom, but the rubber shower is not really clean. Terrace was dirty and cigarette butts were in a corner.

If you look at most of the good reviews on Google, it's strange that so many praise the staff - in a hotel that doesn't have one! And the reviews sound so similar. You wonder if these are bought reviews, because once you've been there everything turns out differently: We stayed at The Librarian for one night. On the booking website, someone asked if breakfast was included, and the answer was yes and it was included. That's why we booked. We arrived at 9 p.m., the hallway was full of laundry bags. The motion detector in the otherwise dark corridor only works from bottom to top. To go out, it only turns on when you have already groped your way down the narrow stairs. The idea of ​​trying a hotel without staff is nice. But when the first impression is this: the walls are scuffed and the hallway is full of dirty laundry, dark and everything is anonymous, what is clearly missing is the person. In addition, the shock when entering the room: there is a bed with oversized pillows, that's all ok, who needs it. Otherwise: no chair, table or armchair, just two small hooks for hanging a small towel. The room has extremely little space. There is a shower and toilet, each with a sliding door, when one is used the other part slides shut. It is not possible to use both when occupied by two people. The motion detectors in the shower or toilet go out after 5 seconds. This gives a nice light-on-and-off flicker, especially when one needs to go to the bathroom at night…. The plaster is flaking off everywhere, the seals are moldy or torn off, and there are disgusting deposits around the ventilation system. This looks really completely different from the photos on the website. And now for breakfast: in the morning we asked via WhatsApp where we would find the breakfast room. They said the hotel didn't offer one. After a short back and forth, the person responsible said that he should probably have the comment deleted on booking. Yes, that would be a really good idea! She is still there. Financial compensation for the lack of breakfast was refused. Our recommendation after this experience: stay away from this hotel! It's not worth the money! And sometimes good service needs people.
