The staff's friendliness made us feel at home, though the noise from the nearby bar disrupted our sleep. A very modern room, but the harsh lighting was a distraction.

spacious house

attentive staff

noise disturbance

We enjoyed our stay in a spacious three-bedroom house with elegant design, making it a comfortable experience for our large family, including our baby. The staff were attentive and made our family feel welcomed throughout our time there.

My wife says that it would be great to have more soundproof rooms to block out the noise from nearby party-goers.
