Pros:

We had two connected rooms, so the apartment was really spacious. It was clean and a lovely apartment, so we recommend staying there. The staff was really friendly as well.

Cons:

The parking situation is a bit problematic but it seems to be the same for most of the hotels in this area. If you really cannot find space for your car in the hotel parking lot, it might also take you some time to find one on the street.
