adequately located apartment
convenient amenities bathroom soaps daily housekeeping tired furnishing seedy area carpet stain
i found the apartment very comfy and tidy. it included convenient amenities like coffee, tea, and bathroom soaps. daily housekeeping was a bonus (i always appreciate this service).
the furnishings was a bit tired and did not entirely match the website photos. the area felt slightly seedy because of the nearby clubs.

great amenities convenient location stained spots coffee supply
the staff was lovely. lots of great amenities were available, including complimentary laundry and dishwasher pods! the location near the castle was very convenient, and many restaurants were nearby.
The carpet had some stained spots. But the coffee supply was a little sparse.
