This is a perfect location. Also we were mother daughter so having a small living area and a bedroom and event bathroom gave us lots of space. So walkable

The fact that after 18:00 there was no one in reception wasn't great and the fact that if we wanted some cleaning in the room we would be charged extra wasn't great either specially since we paid a lot for the room

very nice inside. when desk inside manned, staff very helpful. But desk often not manned and customer service very unhelpful. Took 3 hours for online checkin. Fire alarm kept going off randomly including early in morning and no one on desk so all residents standing around downstairs not knowing what to do. Main problem that property managed from afar (overseas) and this does not provide good customer service.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay. The space is big, beautiful and light filled. Perks for us after travelling a couple of weeks were having a kitchen, the washing machine & a seperate living area. Unfortunately they don’t offer room servicing unless you pay an extra price, however they do have a little service cabinet in the lobby where you can stock up on items such as coffee pods, toilet paper etc which I thought was a great inclusion. It was our favourite hotel so far on our travels. Thanks for having us.

The apartment offered a generally positive experience. The apartment was well-equipped, clean, and situated in a convenient location. The host was responsive and accommodating, ensuring a smooth check-in process (access code was changed last minute via email). However, a significant issue arose upon our arrival: the apartment lacked windows. This detail was not mentioned in the listing, and we were not informed beforehand (in the listing it was written as ‚no special view). The absence of windows made the space feel closed off and stuffy, and the artificial lighting could not compensate for the lack of natural light. Additionally, ventilation was ok but noisy), leading to discomfort during our stay. While the apartment's amenities and location were commendable, the lack of windows significantly impacted our comfort and overall experience. We believe this is a crucial detail that potential guests should be aware of before booking. In light of this, we would rate our stay at 3 out of 5 stars. We recommend that the host update the listing to include this information, allowing future guests to make an informed decision.

Great location and good access to public transportation. The bedrooms in the accommodation we had were comfortable and well decorated with ample storage space. The kitchen was well stocked with all kitchen items you could possibility need with the added benefit of a washing machine and dishwasher. Only issues were the wifi being very poor and that there was no info on how to use the digital thermostat. The wifi would connect but keep dropping/disconnecting to the point we gave up trying to use it. This also affected the digital tv.
