Really good value for the money
Pros:

Really good location, 3-4 minutes to historical center, but far enough from the noise, so it's really quiet.
There's also a supermarket nearby, which came in handy.
It was very clean, bed comfortable, smart TV, really nice place overall.
Also, it has a clothes iron and a small ironing board.

Cons:

To be fair it was more than we expected, so nothing to dislike. Maybe just that we didn't have a view :)) our window pointed to another building 3 meters away. But we didn t stay much in the room and it didn't matter to us.

Book it - you won't regret it
Pros:

When we pulled up I wasn't sure I was going to like the location, then we turned the corner and I realized how close it was to absolutely everything in the Old Town. We felt safe, it was right next to a grocery store for snacks and incidentals and it was easy to get into the building. The unit was super clean, fresh, and secure. The staff was kind, easy to communicate with and adjusted our housekeeping schedule as needed. Having traveled extensively through Europe, I'm confident saying this is one of the best bathrooms we've encountered in our travels through hotels in this price range.

Cons:

The beds and pillows could have been a little more comfortable, but they were passable. There was no option for early check-in (we would have paid an additional fee - our mistake - we should have rented it for the previous night as well) and the luggage storage wasn't ideal. We had to walk several blocks with our suitcases to store them for about two hours prior to check-in. I wish we could have stored them on-site.

Pros:

Great location, great facilities, great service, nice breakfast (1 open sandwich, 1 orange juice, 1 coffee and 1 fruit). Very quite place, no street noise.

Cons:

Poorly organized Wi-Fi authentication (no private network, instead a public Wi-Fi with some not complicated password. one has to input this password at least once a day). It's not safe to use this wi-fi for login bank applications and/or any apps with credentials and personal data.
It took 7-10 minutes for the hot water to run in the bathroom for a shower, so I had to factor this into my evening routine.
Subjectively there were little day light in the room.

De perfecte combinatie van comfort en rust.
Pros:

Alles! De indeling, inrichting, materialen en het comfort van het appartement. Het was modern, schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien. De douche en het bed sprongen eruit!

Cons:

Niks, alles was top!
