Cosy and completely practical, this apartment offers a comfortable base just a short distance from the city centre. The location makes getting around easy – whether by car or public transport – everything’s close by. The open-plan living space may be compact, but it’s well laid out with a comfy lounge and a well-equipped kitchen for meals at home. Up on the mezzanine, the sleeping area feels tucked away and restful. A reserved parking space is a real bonus here, though it’s worth noting that access is a little tight, so it’s best suited to smaller cars.

Home truths
Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay.
The bedroom is on the mezzanine level and semi-open to the space below, so privacy is limited. You'll climb up here using steps so it might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
Though there's free parking here, it's only suitable for compact vehicles. The entrance passage is 214 cm and the space itself is 180 cm wide.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot free. You'll need to request it in advance.
You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
