It was very convenient, close to city centre, on a busy road but was surprisingly quiet despite that. We were able to park close by and there was a supermarket and a choice of places to eat nearby. The apartment was clean and comfortable. The only criticism was the lack of plain ordinary tea bags and plain coffee pods and decaf coffee pods. Thank you

Didn’t have a welcome booklet so when heating never came on we couldn’t work it out. No major issue as we were out most of the time but it then randomly came on as we were leaving on last day??
