10/10 Excellent

Spacious accommodation (we had a 2-bedroom apartment), super comfortable beds, and the most incredible water pressure in the shower! Full size fridge, well equipped kitchen. Stunning views. Nice hot tub & sauna. Convenient indoor parking in a private garage adjacent to the apartment. Very friendly & helpful staff. Location is a little bit outside town but easily walkable. We had a fantastic stay. Highly recommend!
