    9.2/10 - Wonderful (199 reviews)
    "My friend and I had the most amazing stay. Once we realized that the key fob only worked on the floor that the car was parked on, we were sorted. Fabulous views and set up. My only criticism was the pillows. I usually bring my own so will be doing so in the future. We'd definitely stay here again. It was awesome having a car park and the apartment was an easy walk to the city. Hosts were super friendly on check-in, our issue with the key fob and on check-out."
