“This property strikes me as a blend of daring design and prime location, right by the iconic St. Stephen's Cathedral; I can see the allure in its challenging aesthetic and panoramic city views from the rooftop restaurant. However, some may find the execution inconsistent with the price point, and a little attention to detail could elevate the stay. It's a distinctive choice for those who value bold statements and central access, but prepare for a potentially uneven experience.”
