10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
Beautiful little apartment, the living/kitchen area actually ended up being more spacious than the photos lead you to expect which was nice. Having the small washing machine for clothes was wonderful as well. Only small critique is there weren’t extra pillow cases to use on the extra pillows that were in the basket in our bedroom (only one pillow on each bed) and my husband is a multi-pillow sleeper! The kitchen is fully stocked, there’s laundry equipment, and they even have a greeting bottle of rosé for you upon arrival. If you follow the arrival instructions/photos it really isn’t difficult to find the entrance/check-in, but it is a bit of a hike from the train station so be prepared if you’ve got lots of luggage. Overall would recommend and stay again.

Nice place but lacking all information inside.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2025
We really loved the location. There was a spot where we could look over the lake and listen to the music below. Communication was very difficult. I'd contact one person and the new person said I needed to contact the original person and the issues were never resolved. For example, the dishwasher did not work.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2023
Photo's are a little out of date, however apartment is great size in a good location.
On arrival we were missing bed linen and towels, and chat with the manager was slow. In the end replacements were sent.
Areas of the apartment were very dusty, shower drainage was slow, and sofa was stained. Probably due to end of season, but more attention to detail would be great.
