"The hotel's architecture is retro, and even the plumbing fixtures and light switches are vintage, creating a unique atmosphere. Those seeking a different style are welcome to try it. There are two bathrooms, both quite spacious, and shampoo and shower gel are provided. The kitchen lacks a cooking area, only offering basic toast and a kettle."
