We finally ate a home cooked meal and relaxed for a change. The area around the apartment doesn’t look inviting with commercial sheds and what appeared to be an abandoned camper van but once inside it feels very homely. The bathroom could do with repairs as the floor tiles are loose. Most likely from water leaking from the bath tub. Overall, we were happy with our stay. ##### Dario Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Glenn Jun 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Property was as advertised ##### Glenn Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### dalynn May 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Great Great little place in a small town. ##### dalynn Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ewen Aug 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The flat was close to everything in the town.
