Do not Recommend
Cons:

Very bright at night curtains very poor.
Misleading rooms not an apartment, ( no kitchen sink, stove top, couch etc... )
No Fan in bathroom and MOULD was present.
Zero Housekeeping fresh towels and tea, milk etc...
Expected to empty small bins, never had to do this in the passed.
Threated in welcome book charges would apply to things like this.
Customer service was poor. Rude and didn't feel welcome.
Also, we arrived slightly early around 30 minutes asked very politely if she could check if room was ready she did not at all. As we witness another couple arrive at the same time and get there room.

整体还是不错，外面的景色也很美
Pros:

设施不错，location也不错，走到town还是需要个20分钟左右的

Cons:

我们住的是最底下那一层，没有电梯，需要领着行李走楼梯。公寓里有洗烘一体机，但是洗起来声音非常大，一般只能出门的时候打开来洗烘，不然没办法休息的

Pros:

The apartment is in suite A and B both with bathrooms. The view at the lakeside is fantastic. And it is only 10-15 minute walk from city centre. You can park the Carl and walk to the centre.
