..konden nog laat zelf inchecken, smaakvol ingericht, vlakbij stadcentrum
Pros:

Zeer proper, kleine keuken aanwezig, direct boven de bakker, vlakbij eerste winkelstraten om dan te voet naar het centrum te geraken, zelf check in werkte prima

Cons:

...iets duurder dan de andere verblijfplaatsen....maar het is ook de hoofdstad, he....

Pros:

Appartamento ben arredato, bagno funzionale, ottima posizione a 10 minuti dal centro, parcheggio gratuito riservato di fronte all' hotel

Cons:

La stanza era nel sottotetto,e nonostante fosse ben arredata e funzionale,per accedere al letto bisogna strisciarci sopra,non c'era un passaggio laterale a causa dell' inclinazione del letto, adatto solo a chi ha doti ginniche

Pros:

Location and free parking

Cons:

The kitchen sink was not plumber properly and everything that went through the kitchen sink ended up on the floor. Big clean up for us as there were no staff on location

Apartamento pequeñito pero cómodo
Pros:

Las camas eran comodísimas, al igual que las almohadas y el edredón de plumas. La ducha un gustazo, con mucha presión de agua, y equipada con champú, gel y suavizante. El parking en la puerta pim pam. Entrada autónoma y sencilla

Cons:

Encontré a faltar trapos de cocina y un poquito más de menaje, los cubiertos, vasos etc estaban contados. Y para tres noches hubiera necesitado toalla extra, solo 1 me fue un poco justa ( tengo pelo largo)

Pros:

I stayed twice, in 2 different rooms. Both were clean, nicely fitted out and easy to access. Just a warning- they rigidly adhere to the check in time, but you can leave bags in the locked luggage area. The location is on the edge of the main downtown area, so a little bit of a walk, but very accessible.

Cons:

The first room, a double twin, had a funky layout if you like to prop yourself up and read in bed (under the eave) or if you are tall and stand up! Also, the first stay was more costly and didn’t seem to be the best value for money, but the second stay was more reasonable and in line.

Cosy room and comfy bed. Just outside CBD in local neighbourhood with a great cafe "Brik" next door
Pros:

We just stayed the night. Cosy room and comfortable bed. Cafe Brikk nexxt door was fabulous. Very easy to walk into the CBD - Rainbow walk 15-20mins walk away. Easy get to and parking our rental car was no issue.

There was a lift for our friends who have a disability.
