Stylish and comfortable apartment
Pros:

The overall level of comfort was superb, and a well stocked kitchen made self catering easy. Loved the outdoor space too. Very clean and spacious apartment - we had room to spread out.

Cons:

The washing machine was a noisy top loader that didn't work very well.
Lots of things were very high up (kitchen and tumble dryer) and no steps supplied, so impossible to use unless you're tall! Luckily, my husband is.

Comfortable, spacious and perfect
Pros:

We liked it because it was in a good position, was clean and had everything available that we needed. It was spacious enough for our 3 large suitcases and several bags. The receptionist was lovely, we had a little outdoor space and table and chairs and the shower was superb(face it downwards to avoid flooding the wet room)

Perfect place.

Cons:

It isn’t what we didn’t like but a small suggestion.
I’ve said at all the places we have stayed that some places provide extension leads either side of the bed so that you can charge all appliances without trying to get them in the small area behind bedside table. It really does make a difference.

Pros:

Aufgrund der Absage eines Ausflugs durften wir trotz bereits erfolgtem Check-out noch einmal in das Zimmer. Ganz großes Danke dafür!!
Auch alles andere war mehr als super. Großes komfortables Zimmer, sauberes Bad, bequemes Bett und kleine Küche mit allem was für einen Kurzaufenthalt benötigt wird.

Der beste Unterkunft die wir hatten
Pros:

Die Bilder der Unterkunft sind bereits beeindruckend, doch sobald man ankommt und das Apartment betritt, fühlt man sich sofort wie zu Hause. Am ersten Abend war es nass, regnerisch und kalt – der Kamin sorgte direkt für eine wunderbar gemütliche Atmosphäre. An den folgenden zwei Tagen war es warm, und auch die hohen Wände trugen zu einem sehr angenehmen Raumklima bei. Tagsüber waren wir viel unterwegs, freuten uns aber jeden Abend darauf, in unser Apartment zurückzukehren. Es war einfach wunderschön – fast wie ein zweites Zuhause. Die Eigentümerin Deka war mega freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Vielen Dank! Es war für uns eine unvergessliche Zeit. Danke auch vom Geburtstagskind für die Decke!!!

Cons:
