Guests have found the beds comfortable and the apartment size adequate. However, there were complaints about a broken bed, an uncomfortable settee, and noise from neighbours, which affected the overall comfort level for some.

However the flooring in the bathroom toilet and kitchen needs replacing, there is damp in the back bedroom and the settee is very uncomfortable with no padding and it has loads of splits in the material. Booked for three nights but only stayed for two as neighbours to the left could be heard shouting for over two hours until midnight on the second night which was unsettling.
