It was okay with a lot of room for improvement.
Pros:

Quite clean, comfortable beds.

Cons:

Very confusing to find. Located behind one hotel, belongs to another… We were tired from the trip and running around trying to find who/where to get the keys from didn’t help.
Also the booking.com listing promises a ground floor apartment, which it wasn’t. It was very hot inside when we arrived and the en-suite shower switch is in the bedroom which is another strange user experience.
The furniture in the living room was not what it is in the pictures on the website. Altogether the apartment looked and felt different from what we expected.
