9.6/10 Exceptional! (170 reviews)

Clean! Location was amazing! Fans were much appreciated! Loved the bath! I became quite sick after arriving and was able to recoup for several days while my family explored everything, which was close by. Blinds made the bedrooms so dark - while hearing the rain outside … loved that! Only negatives were: The master bed was quite small for two tall people. There was no microwave or condiments, which would have been so handy for the higher price point. Otherwise, amazing apartment! Highly recommend. Easiest check-in I’ve ever had - wish they were all like this!

They treated us like we were spending thousands of dollars. Chocolates and thank you cards for our Honeymoon. And a bottle of Proseco. The restaurant was great. Everyone was kind and generous to us.
