Good value for money Positive: In the middle of city center Negative: The lift type bed feels so tight and i cannot stand and there is no ventilation. There is no lift and i was carrying 35 klg of luggage and I stayed on the hightest floor so a bit of struggle.

Horrible stay abd service Positive: The location Negative: Seems like a nicw apartment. But first of all please mebtion there is no lift.. as soon as we arrived at 3 we realosed the apartment was not cleaned. Bed visibly not changed, dirty towels, dirty floor, dirty plates,.. tried to contact someone. Nothing.. after 2 hours soneone texted that they had some issues and we needed to move one more floor upstairs for an upgrade. We had already bought cleaning materials, bedsheet and towels and cleaned almost the entire apartnent. Anyway we still were asked to move . Went upstairs and was not an upgrade. But is smaller. Still the apartment was not clean as ot should be. Ok new bedsheet and towel, but crumbs everywhere. Sofa full of residues.. dishwasher pods snashed and leaking on the sink. I got a pin in my neck ( which was in the sofa) and a staple in my foot. What is that???? They told me they were gonna sent 25% refund. Nothing . The bed is enclosed and claustrophobic. Really hated sleeping in there Moreover tried contacting booking.com but is literally impossible and the AI does not let me talk to anyone even if i am giving the correct details. Was horrible from the beginning to the end.
