Pros:

Орналасқан орны жақсы

Cons:

Құмырсқалар жүрді. Ескі ауданнан болғасын әрине үй ескі, барлық дыбыс көше , жоғарғы этаждағы әр қадам естіледі.

Pleasantly suprised. Friendly and helpful staff working hard.The price we paid, we received 5 star h
Pros:

For the price increase paid i did not expect a lot. I had never stayed in an apartment before and was very nervous. I was pleasantly suprised and very happy with what we got. The apartment was spacious with separate large rooms a separate seating area with a kitchen . With all the necessities. We were provided with all cleaning products including detergent for the washing machine. The apartment was very clean when we arrived. We had our own garden with a seating area. If it wasn't cold we would have loved to use it. Ironing board with an iron was also provided aswell as gas and microwave to make food. All in all we were thrilled. The location was fantastic 12 min from the blue mosque and other attractions. Aswell as trams to explore further.

Cons:

The only downfall of our holiday was the apartment needs refurbishment. It needs sound proof ceiling or a new floor/ceiling. We were unable to sleep two days in a row as we could feel all the walking from thd tenants upstairs. The ceiling felt like it will come crashing down.we complained about this and the staff were lovely. Especially shazeb. They moved us to aýtÿnother apartment which wasn't as large the one we were originally in but lovely nevertheless.

Niet aanraden
Pros:

Locatie. Wijk goed. Maar langs kleine straat waar auto's en motoren af en toe hard reden.

Cons:

Badkamer, beide verdiepingen. Het stonk heel erg. Geen grote eettafel voor iederen. Hier en daar wat onderhoud nodig. Internet werkte af en toe niet.
