Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Request a courtyard-facing apartment when booking to avoid street noise, especially if you are a light sleeper.

  • 02

    Use luggage storage or the key pick-up service if arriving before check-in, as the entrance can be hard to locate.

  • 03

    Book on-site parking for EUR 10 per night in advance to secure a spot, as public parking is limited and free spots fill quickly.

  • 04

    Confirm the exact room configuration (e.g., number of bedrooms and kitchen equipment) before arrival, as some units may differ from the photos.
