A nice clean well-presented apartment situated where the action is. The facilities offered were of good standard. There were however a couple of minor negatives. Firstly, the second bedroom had no wardrobe, and the first bedroom did but supplied very few hangars. Secondly, the car parking provided was difficult to get in to and out of and there really should have been two places for a two-bedroom apartment. Otherwise, all good.
