All what has been mentioned in previous positive comments. Excellent staff.

The otherwise good apartment was seriously let down by the lack of a possibility to hang up one's coat or suit or shirts.

Apartment was fantastic, very central and everything you could need for a city-break. I would definitely stay again.

Probably not suitable for a young family due to the steep stairs.

It was a lovely, large and extremely comfortable apartment. The decor was lovely and it could not have been in a better position. We really enjoyed our stay.

We had to take our case up 3 flights of stairs and it was a very narrow, spiral staircase.
