Maria from Spain (6/10)
The room had humidity, the coffee machine did not work. For one night it was ok. The location is great.
Mariapia from Denmark (6/10)
Hands down the best thing about this accommodation is the location. It is super central with everything you need close by. The bed was comfortable enough and the pillows were good (which I find rarely happens). The building is very safe and has an elevator. Even though there is a bar/restaurant right across, once you are inside the “lobby” it is super quiet. There was a mini fridge in the room which was a nice touch. Staff was super quick to reply via Booking and sent many reminders with instructions.
