Locatie!

− Lastige douche

Good, but not ideal for along stay. Probably best for a few nights over the weekend with no kids.

Location was great to overland train & restaurants. 3 bedrooms was a plus for a family of 4.

− There were only 2 towels for 4 people. We did get extras bought in by property they were new and wouldnt actually dry more put blue fluff everywhere. No drying rack for laundry - one of the main reasons I booked was the clothes washer pictured...I needed to wash for a family of 4. No tea bags/ mini milks. Living area was too small for a family to relax in for a longer stay. Street was very noisy at night & being a ground floor didnt feel that safe.

Great location close to all coffeeshops, restaurants, bars. Easy access by metro and busses. Access to apartment by codes only which was convenient for our group of 6

− We had an issue with the hot water that we found out after midnight on a Friday night, fortunately a plumber came and fixed the problem on a Saturday morning. In addition the apartment needs better cleaning

Great location!

Great location, brilliant for social aspect with lots of shops, cafes, bars and pubs all around! The apartment was a very decent place to rest your head at night.

− Could be a bit cleaner, we found a tissue on the sofa as soon as we got in. The shower pressure needs looking into too.

− All good!

The location is good and the decorative style is attractive, but the apartment is much more worn and less well-maintaine

The location was good, with plenty of restaurants, cafés and other places to eat nearby. The apartment itself has a nice decorative style, and the gold details and ornaments are pleasant to look at. The photos on Booking.com also make the apartment look very attractive and inviting, and the overall concept of the interior is nice.

− Unfortunately, the apartment did not live up to the expectations created by the photos on Booking.com. The photos make it look like a nice, clean and well-maintained apartment, but in reality it is much more worn and neglected. The building and the immediate surroundings also look quite different from what you might expect from the photos. The apartment clearly needs renovation and more thorough cleaning. The frying pans were extremely old, dirty and neglected and should definitely be replaced. The rug in the living room was also very dirty and looked like it had not been cleaned properly for a long time. There were many small but unpleasant issues: silicone peeling away around the sink, a hole in the linoleum floor, an old sponge left by the sink and no hand soap in the bathroom. There was also bread left in the fridge, presumably from previous guests, and leftover ice in the freezer, which made us question how thoroughly the apartment had been cleaned. The coffee machine was another major disappointment. The apartment is advertised as having a coffee machine, and before our stay I specifically asked the host whether coffee pods would be provided because we were looking forward to having a coffee in the morning. The host confirmed that they would be. However, when we arrived, there was not a single coffee pod. The machine was completely empty. There was also no tea, no coffee and not even basic things such as salt or other seasoning. The towels and bed linen are dark navy blue, which makes it difficult to know whether they are really clean and freshly washed. While this does not necessarily mean that they were dirty, it certainly does not give you the same feeling of freshness as clean white towels and bedding. The windows are old and can only be opened slightly. As the apartment is on the ground floor, we did not feel comfortable leaving the windows open at night because of security concerns, making it difficult to get fresh air.
