Host was accommodating and allowed us to drop our bags earlier than check in. Apartment was clean. Close vicinity to everything only a 5 minute walk from the train station. Would 100% stay again!

Underfloor heating is fantastic. Well thought out place with some good environmentally friendly touches although I do think the hallway lights on the movement sensor would do with staying on a touch longer, we were getting the pram ready in the hallway and had to keep waving my arms around to switch them back on!!! Donât let it put you off thoughâ¦.nice place all round!!!
