Pros:

This was a perfect little stop over the night before our flight. The host was very communicative and helpful. Offered us shuttles to and from the airport. The room was nice and modern, the beds comfy. It was very good value for money. And only about 5 minutes from the airport which was perfect.

Großes Zimmer bei perfekter Gastgeberin
Pros:

Gastgeberin war super freundlich und hat uns mit zahlreichen Tipps unterstützt. Die Lage ist sehr gut, in ein paar Schritten sind McDonalds, Einkaufszentrum oder Reataurants zu erreichen. Zur CityMall sind es ca 10 Minuten zu Fuß. Das sehr große Zimmer befindet sich außer des Wohngebäudes im ersten Stock

Cons:

Die Ein- und Ausfahrt zur Parkmöglichkeit hat mir mit einem größeren Auto etliche Nerven gekostet. Für uns nicht relevant, aber es war kein Fernseher vorhanden

Exceptional
Pros:

Great location near the airport. The beds were very comfortable. All spotless and while we didn't use it, the kitchen seems well equipped. The hosts are very welcoming and kind. The only down side is it's near a main road so you hear some traffic noise all night, but it didn't bother us too much. The beds and the temperature.were good enough that we had a very good night sleep.

Nice apartment but too noisy to sleep.
Pros:

Great location. We stayed before an early flight so it was a 5min Uber to airport.
Restaurants and shops are walking distance. Nice to have a kitchenette.

Cons:

It was very noisy so we didn’t sleep much. Lots of street noise from motorbikes.
No AC but there is a fan.

Great place to stay near the airport
Pros:

Great location near the airport. It was really cheap and easy to get an Uber even at 5am on a public holiday. The apartment was a really good size, well equipped and very clean. We received a very warm welcome - the owner was really friendly and gave us lots of useful information. Great value for money.

Great value close to airport
Pros:

Good value for money, spacious, beds comfortable. Very close to airport with food options near by.

Cons:

Overall great flat but did struggle to sleep due to Motorbike noise.

Also no instructions on how to get in with car, gate was locked and parking entrance very tight. Once in main building no instructions on how to find apartment (had to go back outside) - easy once you know, just need to explain both before arrival.
