It was super clean and the decor is absolutely stunning. Perfect for metal and rock fans with a metal café right underneath the room. You can hear the music in the master bedroom when you open the window but if you close it it's fine. And they provide earplugs in every room. Everything was super clean and there was enough toilet paper and stuff like that. Just 100% the best place I've ever stayed at.

Wonderful hotel-style apartment very close to the city centre. The flat is clean, tidy and beautifully furnished. We stayed as a family of five and there was plenty of space and everything needed in the kitchen. The lock is digital, which makes accessing the apartment even more convenient. The host is polite and helpful. There is also a bakery, a shop and some eateries nearby. The value for money is more than good! We highly recommend it!

I absolutely liked this place. First of all; it was easy to get there, like 10 mins from the main station, on foot. It is not the centre, but not far away. There are a couple a places nearby where you can eat, however better places are a bit farther. Second, I would like to highlight the hosts, they were very fast responding to messages, especially when I had difficulties getting in the first time. The front door has to be pulled, not pushed, by the way, when you are opening it. The apartment is spacious, clean, and comfortable. There bed as well. Kitchen equipped as a described. Most importantly, the hosts exceeded expectations when they provided a few things which were missing, like some coffee, sugar etc. And then they delivered new pillows and some led candles to make the nights even more pleasant - the rooftop terrace is a highlight. I do recommend this place and the hosts!
