Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the fixed-price airport taxi (26€-27€) for a hassle-free transfer; the ride takes about 20 minutes.

  • 02

    Request a ground-floor apartment if stairs are a concern; the building has no lift.

  • 03

    Confirm the condition of air conditioning and kitchen appliances before or on arrival to avoid discomfort.

  • 04

    Plan for street parking or a nearby public car park (approx. 17.90€/night or 2.40€/day) as no on-site parking exists.
