We really enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend it. Since it’s north of the city center, it’s a quieter area but still close to everything.

Very well organized but on reflection I did slip in the bath so maybe they need an extra handle for older people. I do love to sit in the bath when my feet are burning and sore. Everything was perfect other than that.
