Close to activities
Clean, comfortable home in a quiet area
Small stairs to bedrooms & bathroom
Dryer didn’t dry our clothes. We had to use a drying rack. Host offered to bring a drying rack over, but we never got an extra one for our clothes. No clothes line in the courtyard either.

Excellent house 5 mins from the centre. The house was clean, warm and comfortable. Bottle of prosecco ready for our arrival. Due to no previous guests the night before we were able to use the parking permit from Friday to Sunday saving us a fortune. Jella, was very responsive on the messaging service. We gave this property 5* all the way. My second time actually returning here and this now will always be my number one choice. The house actually made our break away even more special because it was faultless. Thank you 😊

Location
Was good quite close to the city .depending on your walking speed its about 6 - 10 min walk to city centre.
Wall is in close proximity to the property itself
Parking...
Weren't allowed to park outside the house so had to park 10 mins away.( luckily its a 5 min walk ) Didn't see why the host couldn't of provided a temporary parking permit as there was space outside the property through out our recent stay..
Not dog friendly place due to neighbours not understanding that dogs can bark when they slam there doors through out the day and night.
9pm is noise cut off in the area apparently?
Shower is poor
Taps in bath room especially the bath are loose and felt as if they would snap off when you turned it on.
Toilet had low pressure ..so could only flush it once and then you would need to wait 10 minutes for it to flush again.
Front door and back door
Door lock incredibly stiff to open and need to really force the front door open.. times we though we had locked the property the door was actually open when we returned..
Back door had a similar issue but not as bad.
