Great Comfort but Service Could Be Improved
Pros:

Overall a very good stay. One of the best beds I have ever slept in: despite the absence of a pillow menu, the pillow was perfect for my taste. The room was well sized and very clean. The minibar was almost complimentary, which was a very appreciated touch.

Cons:

On the downside, service could be improved: no assistance with luggage to the room, no turndown service, and communication with the concierge was ineffective (messages are sent via SMS but cannot be replied to, resulting in a lost request). Overall, I expected more given the star rating and the affiliation with Small Luxury Hotels of the World.

Great location - small room if there are two of you
Pros:

Location is great and hotel team helpful and friendly

Cons:

Hotel room was too small for the two of us and once the suitcase was on the floor it was difficult to walk from the bed to the bathroom - upgrade to get more space would be my recommendation
