Hotel is in a nice area. Nice views from rooftop bar. Small pool area that doesn’t accommodate many. Wonky bathroom set up. Not private enough for friends traveling together.

Perfect option for tourism

The surprise rooftop lounge and pool is the best part of this property. When you are tired of walk and back to the hotel you get a lounge to relax and enjoy a good food and vine for a reasonable price. Very good breakfast. Strongly recommended.

Hotel Rec is a lovely hotel with friendly accommodating staff. The rooftop bar and pool is a great area to relax, with a drink and a snack and take in the view of the surrounding city. The location was good - near to cafes, restaurants and within walking distance of some of the key sites.

Modern hotel with comfortable king size bed and a quiet room (#2017). Nice view of the city from the roof top. The hotel looks better than their online pic. I would recommend it to friends and family.

Good for a Short Stay” The hotel was okay overall. The room was clean, and the bed was decent, but a few broken pieces ( window, cabinets). Staff were friendly, got through checkout very fast. Great location though—close to public transport and a few decent restaurants.
