It features its own dedicated en-suite bathroom, offering a true boutique hotel feel.

It features a modern, open-plan kitchen fully integrated into the space, allowing you to cook and socialize at the same time. This area also includes a comfortable sofa bed that sleeps two additional guests. For added convenience, a third guest toilet (half-bath) is located on the main level.
