A spacious, clean and well-equipped apartment with secure under-cover parking.
Pros:

This was a spacious, sunny, clean, comfortable and well-equipped apartment that met all our needs. Secure under-cover parking was great, although it was a little tight for large vehicles. Access to the car park was via very conveniently located lifts. Location was very convenient for cafes and restaurants with a great Thai restaurant only a block away.

Good value for money.
Pros:

Central location - walk to shops and restaurants. Lovely linen and comfy bed. Clean room and bathroom. Good aircon (heating). Easy check in after hours. Quiet room as requested. Secure parking with lift up to your room.

Cons:

A little light in the room at night around the curtains and under the door (but I am fussy about that - if you are too bring an eye mask).
