Kitchen a bit limited for space due to large dining table. No complaints and very nice apartment.

2. Great views especially whilst dinning. 3. Bigger duvet (king size) would be appreciated. 4. Housekeeping requires more time between lettings (bathroom mirror dirty, low level dusting of radiator fins, and high level dusting of bathroom extraction grills required). 5. Parking pass great idea, no issues with parking during the stay. 6. Would book again.

WiFi very poor, could be addressed by signal booster. Seating not comfortable. Very efficient and effective response from staff about lack of parking permit. Problem was resolved quickly.
