The interior stands out with an absolutely iconic pop-style bar: hundreds of colorful condoms arranged under a backlit glass surface. The whole setting is framed by leather chairs and velvet sofas that evoke a touch of decadent glamour.

Outside, the space is open, breezy, and well-equipped: a pool, jacuzzi, loungers with umbrellas, tables and stools, plants, and wooden decking to add warmth — all with panoramic views of the city. The entertainment offering is broad: DJ sets, drag shows, themed parties, one-off events, and even podcast recordings.
