Excellent! The location, the apartment, amenities: all excellent. Best of all, if you pay for the breakfast, they’ll leave fresh bread hanging your door handle in the morning. Totally worth it! Plants breakfast was 2 oranges, 2 yogurts, sliced bread, ham, and cheese, jams, butter, and a whole red pepper. Room was huge, clean, and everything was perfect.
