Review by hotel critic
If you’re looking for a great base for your city adventures, this apartment hit the mark for me. Located on a quiet street, it made getting around a breeze, with bus stops just outside. I enjoyed a simple and pleasant 30-minute walk to the city center. the newly renovated space was spacious and well-maintained; the beds were particularly comfortable, which is essential after a long day exploring. The kitchen had all the essentials, including cookware and an electric kettle, perfect for brewing a cuppa after a day on foot. Plus, with free Wi-Fi, I was able to stay connected without hassle. One of the bedrooms was obstructed by scaffolding outside, which was a bit of a letdown for the view. That said, the overall cleanliness and modern touch of the apartment made up for it. For the price, I felt I got good value for a comfortable, no-frills stay with easy access to the city's attractions. A solid recommendation for both solo travelers and families!
