"We enjoyed our stay! Both reception staff during checking in and checking out were friendly and informative. The room was clean, the parking very close and affordable. Public transport available at the door, and places to explore and eat were next door or around the corner. The only con was a working dryer but we only found this out the night before check out, and by then it was after hours, so didn't really hinder our experience. Would definitely come back. Would suggest printed and laminated...

3.5 star property
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (424)
"These apartments offer great value in a great location. Its pretty central, with tram stops, cafes and a supermarket close by. There was a couple of smallish strange things, like no bed for our 6 year old, as well as only 2 towels and 2 plates for 3 people. When we asked for an extra towel, they took away the 2 towels and gave us 2 new ones. So we still didn’t have 3. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would atay again. "
