EXCELLENT Based on 25 reviews Kate8 June 2025Verified We had a mixed experience at this Airbnb. On the positive side, the host was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The property was easy to find, check-in was smooth, and there were parking options nearby (although note that the street is permit-only from 8am to 6pm, so planning is needed). The place had everything we needed for our short stay.However, there were a few downsides. The area didn’t feel particularly safe, and the front door opens directly into the bedroom, which made us feel a bit vulnerable—especially as the door itself felt quite flimsy. While the place was generally clean at first glance, we did find a chewed dog toy under the bed, hair in the sheets, and some dead bugs on the window sills. There were also dirty towels left in the washing machine, and one of the bedroom windows didn’t have a curtain, which affected privacy and comfort.Overall, it was okay for a short stay, but with a few improvements, it could be much better. Ethan4 May 2025Verified lovely host, check in and everything was really easy and the apartment looks as it is online. only thing i would say needs a slight improvement is just a curtain for the window in the bedroom, other then that perfect stay. would definitely recommend. Nathan20 April 2025Verified The place was as described in the ad! It came with all the basics for a good short stay. Very affordable and close to the centre / park / station which makes it easy to do things. The booklet that comes with the stay is useful and a nice touch. Very happy, would book again! Laura Beatriz17 April 2025Verified clean and very comfortable apartment, I only stayed two nights, but it was great after a day visiting the city to lie down in that very comfortable bed Chak Sum14 April 2025Verified Clean and comfortable apartment. Close to the train station and easy to find shops and restaurants nearby. Rob16 December 2024Verified This property was beautiful and a really nice size for me and my partner to stay in, lovely big back garden, the only thing I'd say is that the front door leads straight into the bedroom which could make people feel a little unsafe but the door is very thick and secure and there was a party over the whole weekend a couple of doors down so it was very noisy but that is through no fault of the host Lola6 December 2024Verified Another great stay, thank you! really recommend Freya's places 😊 Georgia2 December 2024Verified Great for a short term stay. Walking distance to plenty of food, shops, buses and trains. Vicki17 November 2024Verified Happy with the apartment, just right for a couple, nicely equipped. Marcos Davi27 October 2024Verified a casa estava linda e muito limpa, os aquecedores desativam sozinho e a casa pode ficar muito fria, da pra ouvir muito barulho do apartamento superior.
