More than we expected in every way.
More than we expected in every way. We were 2 adults, 2 children. We only stayed one night waiting for a flight, but could easily picture staying for a week or even more. The only improvement suggestion I would have is to put more things into the kitchen. Things like creamers for the coffee, a nespresso machine maybe, but it's not a must.
Stayed 1 night in Jul 2017
