Reviews

  • Yasmin from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Lovely apartment in an excellent location. Tram stop right outside the door, but within walking distance of city centre. Good welcome pack with tea/coffee and other essentials. Bedroom has floor to ceiling windows so a lovely view – but gets very hot due to direct sunshine, so need to keep the blinds closed during the day.

  • Cathrine from Australia (7/10)

    I loved the location and the ease of having keys delivered to the apartment rather than collecting them from the agency office. The staff were very accommodating even though I was delayed.
