In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

  • High service and value scores — Rated 9.3 for service and 9.2 for value, with several guests describing the owner as warm, helpful and going beyond expectations.
  • Quiet despite the centre — Multiple reviews note the courtyard setting and quiet street, which is a real asset for a central apartment.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • A single room only — The apartment has just one room, so it suits solo travellers or couples rather than larger groups or families needing separate bedrooms.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:00, with no flexibility mentioned — late arrivals could be a problem.
  • No pets — Pets aren’t allowed, so this isn’t the right pick for travellers with animals.
  • No on-site amenities — There’s no breakfast, gym, pool or reception — it’s a self-catering apartment, not a full-service hotel.
