Our online check in issues were resolved eventually after a worrying 24hrs and we were gifted early check in which we were unfortunately unable to use due to our travel plans for the day, so wasn’t much by way of compensation. On arrival the parking access had changed which we were not made aware of and I had to call to gain access. Overall, not wholly impressed by the service for what was supposed to be a relaxed weekend away for my birthday.

A really nice property, very cosy! Sofa was incredible. Pedro is very responsive and helpful. However the main lounge does lack privacy without blinds, and there is not too much to do in the area. But it suited me for a work stay.

Pedro and Alina are great hoist, quickly respond to their guests. One point to make ,I think the living room will do with some blinds or curtains. Otherwise, the house is perfectly fine and clean. I definitely recommend

The flat was great, nicely furnished and very clean. The process was mostly handled through an external site, and they were very responsive, transparent, and proactive on both Airbnb chat and the external page. Highly professional and welcoming, and lots of information provided. Great service and excellent value.

it was a lovely place and the host put a lot of effort into the place to make it comfortable. Pedro and Alina responded very fast and they were really lovely .My partner and I had a lovely time in the apartment and we definitely would come back. It would be amazing having some more blinds in the living room, so you're not so exposed to the people outside. But it is an amazing apartment and we can happily recommend it !
