Spacious, bright, fully equipped kitchen, Access to laundry - very practical when traveling - friendly check in process at nearby hotel - extremely convenient location -
Cozy, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the full kitchen, laundry, and convenient location. Room doors tended to slam loudly, so please be considerate in closing doors gently.

It was a great location in the city, we even booked a tour that ended up being right next to the hotel when we were ending the tour! Space was great and clean, it was nice and quiet as well. The only issue was checking in was a little confusing. I was sent a msg that I would receive codes and apt numbers in a later email but never did. I sent a msg to the host through hotels.com and never heard back. We were early though so we walked over to the location to find out check in is done at the hotel next door. I think they just need to update their check in instructions, but once that was done great place!

These are Individual apartments. No doorman or traditional hotel amenities. Apartments are very clean, modern and in a great part of town. If you’re staying for any duration of time these are great as they have a full size kitchen. Would for sure stay here again.

Great location
Check in was simple but in email it said to check in at hotel next door and attachment to email said I needed a code which confused me. Turns out you check in at hotel and no code was needed. Room was comfortable and spacious with a nice kitchen. Note you need to wash and put away dishes. Location was great and walkable to large part of town.
Access to building is from the back side requiring more walking. It was unclear check-in was at the neighboring hotel until a note was found at the entrance.
Newly redone, clean and near city center.

I did not receive the email with check in instructions that Expedia said would come, but there was a sign on the door directing us to the hotel next door for questions and the woman at the front desk was one of the most pleasant people I have ever encountered and she straightened things out immediately.
