Comfort: the bed is VERY firm, and the pillows are lumpy and uncomfortable. The sofa, which is a bed, is uncomfortable and difficult to sit on. Noise: the condensor for someone’s air conditioner is just outside the front door, and is very noisy - especially at night. We did not use air conditioner, so it was a mystery. The walls are very thin, and you can hear people’s conversations clearly. There were workmen drilling next door for the first 3 days of our stay. Area: Ok. Close to buses and there is a great patisserie next door. Bathroom: good shower Kitchen: well done, with a coffee machine, dish washer, induction stove, oven and plenty of cooking pots, crockery and cutlery. No clothes washer, but laundrette 5 mins walk away.
