Lots of guests say that the accommodation is spacious, and with modern contemporary fixtures and fittings. Indeed, a number of guests have said that the apartments are bigger than they expected, which makes for a pleasant surprise.
positive:
Cheap taxi ride from the city centre
At first glance it might seem like the apartments are a little bit out of town, and therefore not the most convenient. However, many guests have said that if they want to get into the city centre they are only a cheap taxi ride away, so location really is not a problem at all.
positive:
Large groups welcome
It is clear from the reviews that large parties of guests are welcome to stay at these apartments. As such, if you are arranging a stag or hen party this accommodation is well worth considering.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Facilities not up to scratch
Some guests have reported issues with the facilities at these apartments. Whether it is an oven not working, or a lack of sharp knives for food preparation, some guests say this has negatively affected the quality of their stay.
negative:
Not the best part of town
Many guest reviews have had a lot to say about the location of the apartments, and namely the state of the local neighbourhood. Guests say that while it might only be a short taxi ride from the city centre, the area itself is not the best part of town and is said to be quite rundown.
negative:
Poor soundproofing
Some guests have complained about excessive levels of noise. Whether it is from the takeaway located below the apartments that is open until late, or the other guests being quite noisy, this is probably not somewhere to come if you value a peaceful night's sleep.
