- Belinda (2/5): Unit 11 damp and mouldy. Not suitable. - Hard to go past the damp and mould. It should not have been booked out.
Booking.com’s response was very customer focused and excellent when we raised the issue with them. We were in unit 11 and it was damp and mouldy. Wallpaper was lifting off. My partner wasn’t well when we arrived and quickly got worse. Didn’t have the energy to deal with it while we were there. Glad to move on.

- Sandra & Dirk (9/5): Sehr ruhige Lage und komfortabel; Zentrum fußläufig in knapp 30 Minuten erreichbar - Ausstattung, Größe, Komfort,... es gibt eigentlich nichts zu bemängeln. Man fährt mit dem PKW direkt vor das Studio und parkt dort. Das Studio hat ein separates Schlafzimmer, sowie einen Wohnraum mit Esstisch und Küchenzeile,...alles sehr großzügig bemessen. Die kleine Terrasse an der Rückseite liegt geschützt und schattig, ist aber nicht sehr einladend gestaltet und die Außenanlagen sind dort auch nicht so gut gepflegt.
