The location is brill. I did not need keys because door codes came by text. I could walk to the city centre and to the station super quick. The bed felt comfy. The shower was hot and powerful too.

The hot water took an age to heat in the kitchen. Heating water in the kettle was a better option for washing.

The apartment was very clean and tidy. I also liked the pin numbers for both the main door and the apartment. The emails before, during, and after my stay provided valuable information. I appreciated the convenience of leaving my bags after checkout and collecting them later.

The entrance to the car park through the alley was quite narrow. I almost scraped my car.
