The property itself was well kept, clean, and had good utilities. Parking was not at all clear, since it seemed to be in a permit-only area so I parked about 10 minutes away on foot. Strange area to stay in, but again, the place itself was nice and well kept.

it was hard to find the right door on the street and then enter the code on the door as it was difficult to understand. the bed frame was very creaky and there was not even a lamp in the room. the bed was comfortable and the pillows were also soft. room had a good amount of plug sockets and a nice window on the roof. overall not too bad but improvements could be made

Love the quietness of the hotel, also the self service option, but the management need to always follow up on constomers coming in to stay. Like sending a map location,from location close to the apartment.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
When we arrived at the property the key was not in the key safe which was not the owners fault but after waiting 20 minutes in the rain and ringing the ring door bell and contacting the owner with no answer eventually one of the other guests opened the door, the kitchen and bathroom were both clean but our room was not the carpet had not been hoovered and there was clumps of hair on the sofa in the room. Would not stay again unfortunately. Also advertising slightly misleading as did not realise it was shared accommodation i.e kitchen and bathroom this was also commented on by another guest.
