Such a cute place. Love the concept and price was very reasonable. Clean and comfortable with friendly staff. Unfortunately, I personally had an issue with the smell. It may not bother others but was so overwhelming and stuck in all my clothes and gave me headache. Just a note for others with sensitivity to smell.
