We stayed for 1 night before going to our 1-month Airbnb stay due to flight changes. We had a lot of luggage to carry up 2 sets of stairs, as leaving anything in the car didn’t seem like a good idea for the area. Staff was helpful in recommending a place to have supper, which was very nice & close by. We were in a room near the reception and could hear all the conversations in the evening and early morning. Pigeons outside the window were a bit of a nuisance. Breakfast was OK and plentiful. All in all was not bad for the price.

4/10 Fair

The staff was very friendly and helpful during my stay. The room however had bugs all over, it was extremely unpleasant… i wanted to change rooms but it was already night. The shampoo bottles were used, and there was only one sheet in the bed so I had to put up the temperature in order not to get sick.
