Very close to train station.
Very close to large grocery store. Many diverse take-away and dining options in the neighbourhood.
We all had our own bedroom. Kitchen was well equipped. Instructions for entry were clear. Door key was tricky at first, but we got the hang of it eventually. Bus routes nearby. No complaints.
Would not hesitate to book again.
