The apartment was super clean. Amazing value for money was apparent. A super helpful and friendly staff member were noted. The view from the apartment was lovely and I did appreciate it. The apartment itself was warm and cosy.

Finding reception took quite a while, I noticed. The small door did not lead to a reception area as expected.

The location of the hotel was central.

The living room window was not possible to close. This made the room cold. I asked for help, but no one ever came to fix it. That was quite annoying!

The apartment was very spacious. It included great facilities. Views were lovely. I found useful amenities. The staff was very friendly, accommodating a last-minute guest.

The key system caused some trouble. You must turn left to lock. You then tap the fob. You must then turn the key right to unlock and tap the fob again.

Breakfast included porridge and yoghurt. There were also packaged pastries. These were placed in a paper bag each morning. This offers a convenient way to start your day.
