Newly decorated room and spotless, with Netflix and facilities to make tea. Hypoallergenic pillows and down pillows, extremely comfy bed. Great service overall and parking on street. Everything nice.

Stylish and Spacious Getaway
We had a last-minute stay and it turned out great! The room was super spacious and really chic-loved the wooden units. Aircon was a lifesaver since it was a hot night. The check-in was seamless, and the place was super clean. Only thing was the street noise. It wasn't too bad, but you could hear it sometimes.

During my stay, the room offered modern aesthetics with perfect cleanliness and a powerful shower, enhancing my experience. The only challenge involved the design of the bathroom sink, which made washing my face slightly cumbersome. Nevertheless, the overall ambiance and charm of the place impressed me greatly.

The Vanguard is a wonderful choice, just a short walk from the city center. The room was cozy, clean, and well-equipped, though I would have preferred a non-plastic coffee maker. The staff were helpful, ensuring a smooth check-in and check-out experience.

The Beautiful King Room features a modern and super clean design, complete with a powerful shower that gave a refreshing start to the day. The espresso machine in the room added a nice touch, perfect for a caffeine fix without leaving the comfort of your bed.
The street view isn't a sight to behold, with some unsightly views that might detract from the overall experience. Noise can be an issue, particularly in room 1, where late-night foot traffic and chatter could disturb your peace. The bathroom had an unpleasant smell like stagnant water that lingered throughout the stay, not what you expect from a place with a nice setup. Lastly, the narrow and steep stairs might pose a challenge for those managing heavy luggage or any mobility concerns.
