Amazing Apartment Stay!

spacious apartmentgreat decoreasy parkingfine building

The apartment was spacious and had great decor. Access and parking were easy, I liked that! Everything I needed to be comfortable was provided. I really recommend this place. The building and grounds are fine, very high quality! Location is awesome to hop into the city, and it's also quiet for relaxation. I arrived to a bottle of prosecco. Seriously, I wanted nothing more!

The coffee capsule supply was limited, it affected my morning a little.
