Hotel Chic & Basic Born Review
A revolutionary concept best illustrated by the middle-of-your-room glass shower stalls, the Chic & Basic is a hit with young hipsters looking for the combo package of splashy design with affordable prices. Rooms are awash in white giving it a certain serenity; that is unless you hit the color LED lights and it becomes a minirave. The restaurant, called the White Bar for its completely albino decor, serves excellent Mediterranean cooking. Designer Xavier Claramunt has come up with a winner here.
