    We had a fantastic stay here! The location is excellent, right in the heart of a busy street. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, including a comfortable bed and a clean, well-presented bathroom. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, providing us with great service. We also loved the convenience of the laundry facilities and the air conditioning, which kept our room nice and cool. we were impressed with the amenities and the attentiveness of the staff.

    We highly recommend this place to everyone.

    Spent Christmas in a nicely decorated apartment with everything we needed for our stay. The location was perfect, in a trendy and interesting part of town which had plenty of restaurants and shops. The apartment was clean and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchenette. We also appreciated the keyless entry system which made everything simple.

    Although the apartment was generally clean and comfortable, the shower could have been cleaner. , the access code to get into the building and the apartment was a bit of a hassle, particularly when arriving late at night.

    We had a great stay in this hotel. The location was perfect, as it was close to the University and the city centre without being too noisy. It was also close to a lot of different cafes and restaurants, making it easy for us to grab breakfast in the morning. Additionally, the hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained, as was our room. We especially appreciated the fact that there was a supermarket nearby.

    Nothing, all great!

    The bed was comfortable and the room had everything I needed including a convection microwave, which was super convenient for reheating leftovers. the air conditioning was excellent and the check-in process was easy with the secure code entry.

    The smoke detector was right above the bed and had a very bright light that woke me up in the middle of the night. Another issue was the parking facilities, which were inadequate for my needs.
