Liked: Cleanliness
Really enjoyed staying here due to the location. Everything was within walking distance and the local area felt safe at all times. The property needs some work - the oven didn't work, the shower is hard to use and the beds were very uncomfortable. Needing a phone to enter the property was okay, but it was very temperamental.

Jag gillar området, nära till det mesta och om man gillar att promenera så är det ett bra utgånsläge till mycket. Helhetsintrycket av boendet är bra men just denna lgh var lite sliten och saknade köksutrustning.

Great location, safe, clean and comfortable

Perfectly placed for getting around the city, loads of shops and restaurants close by. it is in a safe apartment block above a small mall. The apartment is good for a short stay, very clean and the bed was comfortable. Some of the fittings/furnishings could be improved, eg more light blocking curtains and bigger towels would be appreciated, but overall it had everything we needed and was very quiet.
