    street noise
    wifi issues

    don’t let the friendly staff fool you. i endured street noise all night and embarrassing wifi failures. i expected a complimentary upgrade for my troubles but was treated like any other guest, how absolutely rude. i almost left a decent review but just couldn’t, as the lack of consideration was simply appalling.

    spacious room
    big fridge
    noisy nights

    Spent 9 nights in a spacious one-bedroom. The big fridge and kitchen tools were a plus, but the wifi was a pain, and noisy nights made sleeping tricky. Clean with helpful staff, though! Would recommend for a longer stay.

    spacious apartment
    walking distance shopping
    local restaurants
    family-friendly activities

    With my big family, we enjoyed the spacious two-bedroom apartment, perfect for everyone. Being within walking distance of a vibrant shopping area was a huge plus, as we could easily find restaurants and explore local shops without needing to drive.

    My kids wished for more family-friendly activities nearby.

    helpful staff
    well-equipped kitchen
    patchy wifi

    Had an awesome time with friends! The location was perfect for walking to nearby shops and the main park. We enjoyed some first-run movies in our apartment and appreciated the well-equipped kitchen for late-night snacks. The staff was super helpful and friendly, making our stay even better. Totally recommend it for a group getaway!

    Our only downside was that the wifi could be patchy at times, which made it hard to stay connected during our stay.

    spacious room
    clean living space
    street noise
    loud air conditioning
    sleep interruptions

    The spacious room provided a fantastic work area and a comfortable eating space, making it ideal for my stay. Decor in the apartment was modern, and the cleanliness was commendable. however, noise from the street occasionally disrupted sleep, and the air conditioning unit was a bit loud. A several shopping venues nearby made it convenient to grab nibbles for late-night snacks.

    comfortable bed
    friendly staff
    secure off-street parking

    Do recommend for a quick trip

    Comfortable bed, friendly staff, with the added delight of a bathtub, which is uncommon in the region, and the convenience of secure off-street parking made my stay truly enjoyable.

    Everything was superb.
