This was a girls weekend away and my friend and I got upgraded to a 3 bedroom unit so we could both have a queen bed each, which was very appreciated! The units have everything you need and are very cosy for a winter stay. Also, easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place"

"Great value for money. We had unit view city, very comfortable bed. Heatpump kept us warm. Sourav and Nik very helpful and made us feel at home. The unit itself was nice and quiet. Only downside communal kitchen needs more daily cleaning, and more checking of ovens dishes etc. Will stay again."
