A great location - indeed chic and basic.
A great location, opposite the zoo and a good shopping street,and 15 minutes walk from the townhall square, only 2 minutes round the corner from another Chic and Basic property used for check in and b'fast, tea, coffee, and drinks. The room was indeed chic and basic, with nice high ceilings of an older property. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom adequate, with good hot water. Minor mentions (NOT moans): I'd have preferred a shelf in the shower to avoid needing to bend down for soap etc. a power socket near the desk (but you can use the TV socket) and a small fridge, but none of these would dter me from returning.

Was a little concerned about checking in at a Kiosk, I expected a box type check in. But it is a regular “hotel” type check in with a person. Then you walk around the corner to the actual hotel where you can enter with your key. The room was nice, clean with comfortable beds. The safe did not work,and I reported it the next day. They have a lovely “common “ area where you can get tea, coffee and biscuits. Our room had a small balcony that was enjoyable. Overall highly recommend

Room was very small but was only used for sleeping so no big deal. Room was clean but closer inspection shows lack of effort. Dust in corners, stains under toilet seat. Complimentary coffee, pastry, biscuits and sweet was a nice touch. Look out for noise if you’re in room 25 right next to the coffee area. No staff onsite, check-in is round the corner. Wasn’t overly impressed with having to walk the street with an iron and ironing board from one hotel to the other. Served its purpose but will look for an alternative next time.

Beautiful balcony room
There are two doors to enter the hotel. One is for the front desk and the other to enter the hotel rooms. We didnt know this so we were looking around for a few minutes. Other than that confusion, the staff was nice and attentive. The space was very cozy and different to the hotels we are use to in the States. But still good. Have everything we needed

The rooms are a bit sombre and dark but that's clear what they are going for - it's just not really to my taste, aesthetically. They are stylish though if you like that kinda thing. My shower was a bit chaotic! Biggest selling points to this place are the extremely helpful but laid back and friendly staff. They held on to my bag for me for free for several hours afterwards too. Thanks. I also loved that they had a tea and coffee station (with still and sparkling water too) which was free. It was great to be able to stumble out of your room at 7am and get a free coffee freshly made from a nespresso-type machine. I took advantage several times in a row! It's an excellent location and I would stay again.

The interiors don’t look clean, it had a dusty smell, my AC was not working, but they fixed it the next day. Next to the entrance there were homeless people sleeping every day, doing drugs and had the place smelling bad.
