Worth booking. Highly reccommend for a tennis stay.
Pros:

Large apartment that's well appointed for myself and two friends. Location great and the staff were lovely and helpful. Perfect for the tennis and easy walk or a taxi away. I would stay here again.

Cons:

Bathrooms need a bit of a modernization. They are fine but the doors in the two bathrooms didn't shut properly and if you are sharing people can see right in if you don't put something to keep the door somewhat closed. The taps and toilet also didn't seem to drain properly (in our room anyway) Apart from that I would easily stay there again. Its a great please and very comfortable.
