This apartment was absolutely beautiful, full of natural light and sizeable balcony to sit outside with a cuppa. Short walk to cafes and easy drive to galleries and parliament. Even a sneaky tiny view of the parliament flag if you look carefully from the balcony!

Liked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
The apartment was well appointed and comfortable but the walls were super thin which meant we could hear every movement from the people next door.
Lovely spacious apartment with amenities within walking distance and public transport nearby. Having car park access was a huge bonus and a lift to reach our accommodation was made that much easier. Communication with the host was always instantaneous. Slight hiccup with the wifi but this was resolved very quickly by the maintenance crew. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
