A good location close to the station and shops. The buses are very close. Sometimes I could hear people outside at night but it was not for long The shower is good and having a washing machine and nescafe coffee maker is a plus. I would prefer a harder bed but this one was still ok.

Incredible host, well-organised for check in. This apartment is truly luxury and the balcony faces the sun. It is a 30 second walk from the station, very short walk to the centre and the neighbourhood is lovely. There was always someone available via telephone to give advice and they were always so helpful. I would recommend a thousand times. Wonderful stay! Thank you

I've visited one of the flats but not stayed in the Airbnb so can't comment on that. This is not an hotel
