Great location, right on the waterfront, close to restaurant and bars. Large apartment with large terrace.

Communicated via WhatsApp our arrival time which was after normal check in time. We were not told this would be a problem and we're told to inform via WhatsApp at a certain point on the drive from the airport so we could be met with the keys. We informed them at this point and then again on arrival however it took almost another 30 minutes with messaging and unanswered voice calls for anyone to arrive. Met with some rudeness to both us and our driver on arrival suggesting that we should not have checked in later than the check in time. I would be very wary doing this as a solo traveller in case this would reoccur.

9.0

Loved the location on the waterfront. Secure parking, nice balcony . Having a washer and dryer is such a bonus when you’re travelling around. The bath was great , plenty of hot water . Air conditioning is a bonus. Great communication from Faith .

Small bed , no wine glasses, no chopping knives. Too much furniture, 2 settees and 2 big armchairs for 2 people made it feel crowded.

Sehr zu empfehlende Unterkunft für Ausflüge in die tolle Umgebung

9.0

Tolles Apartment mit schönem Balkon direkt an der Waterfront. Perfekte Lage um abends das Auto stehen lassen zu können, viele nette Restaurants in fussläufiger Entfernung. Großer Tiefgaragenstellplatz.

AC hat nicht ganz so funktioniert wie vorgesehen, hat eher gelüftet statt gekühlt (trotz entsprechender Einstellung), war aber noch ok (25 Grad Raumtemperatur trotz eingestellter 20 oder weniger; draußen waren über 30…)

Nice stay in a great location with loads of bars and restaurants nearby

8.0

Right on the waterfront with a huge balcony.

The bed was a bit small just a standard double, this was due to the bedroom being small
