What guests say
Reviews highlight a clean, quiet stay with a notably good shower and an overall comfortable, well-kept unit. Guests also respond positively to the calm neighborhood setting. A recurring caveat is accuracy of the floor level: one review notes the apartment was on the second floor despite the description indicating first-story. Even with that mismatch, the guest indicated they would stay again.
