“The location was perfect, right in the city center, making it easy to walk to all the major sights. The modern, spotless apartment was fully equipped with a large TV and all the cookware we needed. Check-in was smooth and the staff were fast and helpful. No elevator, but the location made up for it. The paid airport shuttle was handy. Great stay with Wi-Fi and air conditioning. No pets and no smoking on site.”

“No toilet paper provided, the washing machine didn't work, and there was no extra blanket even though it was cold.”

“Nice 8-night stay. Staff were truly helpful. The location is magnificent, near everything, so don't hesitate to book.”

“The kitchen was spacious and fully equipped, and there was an extra bed in the living area. The bathroom in the other flat was a good size, with a smaller but functional kitchen. Having a washing machine was a big help, and there was a shop right outside. Location was unbeatable, with metro stops and a Lidl nearby, plus it was very cost-effective. Staff were super responsive on WhatsApp. The apartment was newly renovated and clean, exceeding expectations. We could walk everywhere. An electric kettle would have been more convenient than boiling water on the stove, and we had no toilet paper on arrival, but those were minor issues. Walls were a bit thin and getting keys after hours was challenging, but overall I highly recommend this place.”

“We didn't spend much time in the apartment because the location was so great – we were out exploring the city most of the time.”

“It's an apartment, not a hotel. The location was good, but we visited in the wrong season; I think this would be better in the summer months.”
