Week stay in October

The flat was beautiful and modern with great views and very comfortable. The main drawback was how noisy the highway was right beneath you. They provide earplugs which helps but that gives you an idea of how noisy it is! We did get used to it after the first or second night but never opened the windows.

We're so pleased you found the apartment beautiful, modern, and comfortable, with great views. We regret that the nearby highway noise was a drawback, but we're glad you were able to adjust. We hope to welcome you back for another great stay.
