The flat is in a fantastic location, it’s spacious and well heated, which we were very grateful for, as weather was not the best. The kitchen is well equipped, also the separate utility room.

8/10 Good
"The rooms were large. The location was excellent, close to the main areas but very quiet. The bed was extremely firm, too firm for us. Generally, it was a little dated. Breakfast was okay. In my opinion, not a 4 star property though. "
