Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the free luggage storage at the property if you arrive before 15:00 check-in or need to store bags after 11:00 check-out.

  • 02

    Request a 12:00 check-out free of charge if you prefer a later departure.

  • 03

    Request a quiet, rear-facing apartment if you are a light sleeper, as street-facing units can be affected by night-time noise from the city centre.
