Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Overall this place was great. It was within walking distance to everything. Restaurants, cafes, grocery stores are right there. The Nescafé machine didn’t work. They did supply a couple of packs of instant coffee. The photos are true to life. It’s very clean. The bed and pillows were comfy.

Nicely located & decorated

Apartment was modern and in a great location, however there was quite a lot of noise from the upstairs neighbour. It would be nice to have a curtain on the rear patio door & bedroom window for extra privacy, especially with the bedroom being on the front ground floor room.
