The location is in the new Nivy part of town, very clean and the added bonus of bars, restaurants and a huge shopping centre close by. The apartment was super quiet, we didnt hear any noise from any other room. The blinds on the balcony also kept all light out, it was perfect! Super clean, great location, 5 mins from the shopping centre walking and 20 minutes walk from old town. Would stay here...

The shower door is broken and they need more shower gel for clients. It was a clean property and didn't have any smell. The staff were friendly and helpful.
