Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Bedrooms can be compact — A couple of reviews note that the bedrooms are tiny, which may be a consideration for those expecting spacious sleeping areas.
  • Limited room types — Only one apartment type is listed, with two single beds, so it may not suit couples seeking a double bed or larger groups.
  • Check-in window is late afternoon — Check-in is from 16:00 to 23:59, which may be inconvenient for early arrivals, though one review notes flexibility with arrival times.
  • No pets allowed and non-smoking — Guests travelling with pets or who smoke on site will need to look elsewhere, as the property prohibits both.

“Fantastic stay with a late check-out and a warm welcome from the owner. The bedroom was small, but it was great to have a dishwasher, fridge, and microwave. The garden view from the balcony was excellent, and the location was close to everything, including the riverside, malls, and train station.”
