6/10 Good
October 27, 2024
The apartment was great and everything we need. The reception personal was not welcoming at all. It also took very long for us to check in. There was also a problem with the drainage of the shower. So in other words its a management issue as the apartment itself was great but unfortunately they won’t see us again.

Disco living… noisy!
It’s a very noisy hotel, music coming from every direction till late. Even on the 4th floor the bed ‘shook’ from the loud music on the ground floor. Also there’s no outside area as stated on the website; the pool is owned by a third party and not open to hotel guests.

8/10 Very Good
December 29, 2023
Loved the apartments. All appliances and furniture is modern and clean.
However, it is extremely noisy. Guests are not respectful of resting hours. People scream and shout in the corridors it’s unbelievable. Cleaning staff speaks loud too.
But overall a really good place to stay, with reasonable prices.
