Neat unit clse to centre restaurants and waterfont

4 nights. 34 steps to go up to the second floor. A good sized unit but not good quality linen, pillows and the bed is sinking in the middle. Lots of helpful items to use. Needs checking to improve some areas and Entry details need to be sent at least 48 hours before.

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The property was in a central location and walkable distance to supermarket and restaurant. Host will contact you on the day of check in for details. The place was clean and spacious, being quite comfortable to live in with a kitchen, however you would need to bring your own hair dryer. There is a washing machine but the clothes dryer was not working. There is also no elevator and you need to walk two flights of stairs to the place. Overall it is fine for its price, as the hotels nearby can get quite pricey.
