"A lovely, clean apartment with everything we needed. Heating system quickly warmed up the apartment. Booking in was straightforward and the staff great. We were given a small bottle of milk to help us. A nice touch! Easy parking. Perfect location, only a short walk to the city centre and 10 to 15 minutes walk to the railway station."
