Für eine Nacht okay
Pros:

Unkomplizierter 24/7 Check-in, gute Lage direkt neben Uni Campus. Kommunikation im Vorfeld mit Personal über WhatsApp.
Für eine Nacht OK. Es war sauber.

Cons:

Leider sehr weiches und durchgelegenes Bett. Zu zweit nicht besonders angenehm die Nacht... Allein wäre es okay gewesen. Ansonsten geht's, aber das Hauptanliegen Schlafen ist nur mittel.

Ottima posizione
Pros:

Posizione strategica, check-in comodo

Cons:

Da rivedere la pulizia non è ottima e assenza di aria condizionata in estate e un solo ventilatore non è sufficiente.

Studio apartment that’s perfect for a short term stay
Pros:

For the price it was exceptional and exceeded all our expectations, no real defects

Cons:

Dish soap was a bit hidden away, self check-in is very late in the afternoon, but the latter is understandable and it’s specified before booking
