Loved how it was so close to the Central Station - about 11 min walk. There were grocery stores, pubs, cafes and such near by. Also a brief walk from the city centre where there is alot to discover. Wish I would've stayed for longer but when I come back, I definitely will be using this establishment again :)

    The apartment was in a great location. The hosts provided a lot of information. There were plenty of nice touches: nice prosecco glasses, smart TV and a good shower. We used the multi storey carpark which was really close and not very expensive.

    This is. a lovely guest house that offers a quiet room and a comfortable stay with a breakfast. We had a shared bathroom but no one else used it except us and it was right next to the room. Our lovely host also knew that we did not like heat so offered us the room at the back of the house which was very cool and quiet.
