Safe, quiet. Need to clean the daddy leg spiders in the entrance hallway and maybe spice it up with a picture so you feel welcome when you come to the apartment each time. When we first came in it would have been nice if the Heatpump was on at a comfortable temperature. Shower is unusually small. Overall good but for the money I would still search around for better luxury unless you love the boats out look. Space wise the room is very good.

We got accused of filleting and scaling fish in the apartment, and having left fish scale all over the kitchen. I have requested some photos of the so called fish scale, none were provided. We purchased salmon fillets and pizza base from the local store, and cooked a salmon pizza. An apartment with a full kitchen should allow guests to cook pizzas in the oven. If you plan on doing any style of cooking best book elsewhere.

Lovely property with high ceilings and a great view over the waterway. I would gladly stay here again. Plus, it comes with a garage so you don’t need to use the outdoor car park if you don’t want to!
